Architecture

Shorewood is rich in architectural diversity, having representative buildings from every decade starting from the 1880s. From its Lake Drive mansions, to its many bungalows and duplexes, to its modern apartment buildings, it is hard to find such variety in a single mile. Some of the styles you will see are the American Farmhouse, Queen Anne Revival, Craftsman, Prairie Style, Milwaukee Bungalow, American Foursquare, Mediterranean Revival, French and Spanish Eclectic and Mission Styles.
