Charles Hart Homestead
Site of the homestead of Charles Hart, founder of Wauwatosa, who arrived here in May, 1835. He built a log cabin in what is now the village and with his brother, Thomas, operated saw and grist mills. In the early 1840s Charles Hart built a large two-story home at this site. It remained until 1936 when it was demolished to allow this road, The Charles Hart Parkway, to be built.
Marker is at the intersection of Charles Hart Parkway and Ludington Avenue, on the right when traveling west on Charles Hart Parkway.
