Saint Vincent's Infant Asylum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, was constructed beginning in 1878 as a Catholic institution dedicated to caring for unwanted infants. Designed by architect E. Townsend Mix, the building's first section was executed in High Victorian Gothic style, with subsequent additions following the same aesthetic approach. The structure has evolved over time, serving various social service programs beyond its original charitable mission. Recognized for its historical significance, the asylum was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987 and appears in the Wisconsin State Register of Historic Places.
