Fox Point is a suburb of Milwaukee. It is located on the North Shore, east of Milwaukee along Lake Michigan, and was incorporated as a village in 1926. Fox Point residents can rest assured that SERVPRO is Here to Help with any issues arising from water, fire, mold, or storm damage resulting from the often unpredictable Midwest weather.
Early Fox Point settlers were Dutch. Joel Buttles was the first white person to settle in Fox Point. He bought 560 acres of land in what is now Fox Point, River Hills, Shorewood, and Whitefish Bay in 1843. There were few, if any, Native Americans in Fox Point because the soil was thick with clay, which made farming difficult. Other Dutch settlers followed Buttles and used new agricultural techniques to grow wheat, barley, rye, and corn despite the clay. Some residents noticed that a point of land (in what is now Doctors Park) that jutted into Lake Michigan looked like the head or nose of a Fox, and so they named the area “Foxes Point.” Eventually, the name was shortened to “Fox Point.” Public services were provided by the Town of Milwaukee, which then covered all of Milwaukee County north of Greenfield Avenue. Fox Point’s first school opened in a log cabin in 1848. Dutch Reformed church services were held in the 1850s. Germans arrived and erected Lutheran churches in the 1860s.
Fox Point incorporated as a village in 1926. The Fox Point School District began to operate the following year. The Village of Bayside acquired a school in 1948 and merged it into the new Fox Point-Bayside School District.
Fox Point is known for the Schlitz Audubon Nature Center, a 185-acre preserve on what once was the Schlitz Brewing Company’s farm for retired horses. It is also the home of Cardinal Stritch University and the Mary Nohl House, a residence and sculpture garden of the modern artist Mary Nohl who died in 2001.
