The Wisconsin Leather Company Building, completed in 1874 in Milwaukee, served as the central office and store for one of the city's pioneering leather manufacturers, which had grown into one of the largest operations of its kind by the 1870s. Designed by architect E. Townsend Mix in the Italianate style, the brick structure reflects the commercial architectural ambitions of Milwaukee's industrial era. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2005 and is also listed in the Wisconsin State Register of Historic Places.
