	Wisconsin Highways: Milwaukee Freeways: East-West Freeway
		This freeway begins at the Lake Interchange on Milwaukee's lakefront which connects with the Lake Freeway heading southerly across the Hoan Bridge and Lincoln Memorial Dr heading northerly in the path of what would have been an extension of the Lake Freeway through Veterans Park, then heads westerly skirting the south side of downtown.
		The ramps to and from 6th St through the yet-unfinished Marquette Interchange in downtown Milwaukee were completed in 1966, extending the freeway a short distance farther to the east, with further extension in 1968 when the freeway and ramps to Plankinton Ave was opened to traffic.
		In 1995, outspoken Milwaukee Mayor John O. Norquist proposed the I-794 portion of the East-West Freeway from the Marquette Interchange easterly to, and including, the Lake Interchange be removed completely and replaced with a landscaped surface boulevard.
