Station 2 - The Eastern Connection
Milwaukee
Summary
Station 2 - The Eastern Connection opened in late October 1987 at 1534 W. Grant Street, established by owners Lois and Sheri as a larger and more successful follow-up to their first bar, Gay Street Station. It celebrated its fifth anniversary in 1992 and, by the mid-1990s, was being listed simply as Station 2. Advertising tapered off over time, though the bar remained in the bar guides until early 2001. Later that year the same location was taken over by a new, short-lived bar called Off The Tracks.
