Burns Commons is the northern terminus station for the M-Line of The Hop. The station is located on Ogden Avenue between Farwell and Prospect Avenues in the Yankee Hill neighborhood on the southern edge of the East Side of Milwaukee. Tour There's a bench and a schedule, and little to nothing else.  Notice about the Festival Line service The trolley itself There's not much else here.  Bus Connections There's only one connection to the MCTS bus system here, and that's the 30 bus. This bus runs from the Upper East Side, along Wisconsin Avenue and then along Sherman Boulevard to the North Bay Shopping Mall.

The Jewish Museum of Milwaukee is also nearby, as well a...
