Editorial Review for Depot Skating Rink – by Debbie Mazzocco
In Short
After 20 years of sitting empty and unused, the historic 1899 Milwaukee Road Depot was brought back to life in 2000--with an enclosed, year-round figure skating rink. Located in half of a 600-foot-long renovated train shed, the rink has special lighting, a high-quality sound system, and glass walls that allow natural light and curious passers-by to peer in. Renovations and construction have also yielded two hotels and an indoor water park.

We love going to the Depot for skating. It's hardly ever crowded and skaters there are always courteous. It's the most fun when they have the disco ball spinning and music playing. Snacks and rentals are a bit more than I'd like to pay, but the atmosphere and fun you have are worth it.

The Depot's Indoor Ice Skating Rink is a blast! When I went, they were sponsoring a United Way Donation and by bringing in any winter gear, you skated for FREE! This was impressive and drew a large crowd! In addition to this, even while being so busy, we were able to lace up and get on the ice in no time. This is a great place for winter enjoyment or romance. Afterwards, we walked over to Charley's Restaurant at the Courtyard for dinner. The food was excellent!
Pros: Good Music, Fun Atmosphere, Great Location
