OnMilwaukee: A Look Inside The Completed Tosa Log Cabin

After a number of false starts, the Wauwatosa log cabin, built by Frederick Underwood in the 1920s, was successfully moved to 6404 W. North Ave. and renovated.

The move from Wauwatosa Avenue and renovation were undertaken by Galbraith Carnahan Architects, which moved into the updated cabin in April 2o21 from its previous home a block west.

As I noted in this Urban Spelunking story about the history and move of the structure, which includes “before” photos, as well as historical images, including one showing the previous move:

“Despite the fact that some believe the cabin to date back to pioneer days in Wauwatosa, the cabin was built in 1921 to plans drawn by Scott & Mayer at a cost of $15,000, by railroad executive Frederick D. Underwood.

“It was erected on a nearby site called Few Acres Farm, a 7.5-acre plot on the northwest corner of Wauwatosa and North Avenues, where the two-story Underwood mansion also stood.
