On the depot:

Join us on a nostalgic journey through Wausau, Wisconsin, as we explore the rich history of the Chicago and Northwestern Train Depot — a symbol of the city’s industrial past and its ongoing revitalization. Wausau was once a vital crossroad of the Wisconsin River and the expanding railroad system in the 1800s. In this video, we dive into how Wausau grew from a booming white pine lumber town powered by Big Bull Falls, to a modern regional hub.

Discover how the 1899 train depot played a crucial role in transporting lumber and passengers, before it transformed into a bus station, a Chinese restaurant, and now the home of the Greater Wausau Chamber of Commerce. Watch as we tour the beautifully renovated historic building, brought back to life by Ghidorzi Construction.
