Granville Cleanup and Restoration

Originally a town within Milwaukee County, Granville is now a neighborhood located on the City of Milwaukee’s northwest side. Created in 1840 by the territorial legislature, the Town of Granville extended north from Hampton Avenue to County Line Road and west from 27^th Street and Range Line Road to 124^th Street. The majority of this area eventually joined the City of Milwaukee, although some sections became the Villages of Brown Deer, River Hills, and Glendale. The final annexation of Granville, in 1962, marked the largest territorial acquisition in Milwaukee history.  SERVPRO is Here to Help these homeowners with any issues arising from water, fire, mold, or storm damage resulting from the often unpredictable Midwest weather.

The Town of Granville was settled by Yankee-Yorkers beginning in 1835. Several of the earliest white residents of Granville migrated from Granville, Washington County, New York and named their new home after their old one. During the following decade, German, Irish, English, and Canadian immigrants arrived in the Town. Members of Granville’s German community were among the founders of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod, which held its first meeting at Granville’s Salem Evangelical Lutheran Church in 1850. From its inception, Granville was an agricultural community. Residential subdivisions began in the 1920s, but the area hosted farms even after its annexation into Milwaukee.

Today, Granville is synonymous with Milwaukee’s far northwest side. Granville’s 1950 population of over 11,000 rose to over 45,000 by 1985. Most Granville residents live in ramblers, split-levels, apartments, and condominiums built since the 1950s. From 1973 until its closure in 2003, Northridge Mall was a retail focal point and major employer in Granville.
