The city of Milwaukee, Wisconsin is home to 114 high-rise buildings, 34 of which stand taller than 230 ft (70 m). The majority of the city's high-rises are located between Interstate 94, the Milwaukee River, and Lake Michigan, with an additional string of high-rises extending north along the lake. The tallest building in Milwaukee, and Wisconsin, is the 42-story, 601 ft (183 m) tall, U.S. Bank Center, which was completed in 1973. The second-tallest is the 37-story, 549 ft (167 m) tall, 100 East Wisconsin Ave. building, completed in 1989.

The history of skyscrapers in Milwaukee begins with the Pabst Building. Completed in 1891, and standing 235 ft (72 m) tall, it was Milwaukee's first skyscraper. It was the tallest building in the city until City Hall was completed four years later. The Pabst Building was demolished in 1981, and 100 East Wisconsin now stands on the site. For nearly eighty years, from 1895 to 1973, the Milwaukee City Hall dominated the skyline, and was at the time of its completion, the tallest habitable building in the United States. The city experienced a building boom in the mid- to late-1980s. Five of the twelve tallest buildings in the city were constructed between 1985 and 1991. Including two Northwestern Mutual buildings under construction and The Couture, seven of the thirteen tallest buildings will have been constructed since 2005.

Since 2013, downtown Milwaukee has seen the construction of the Moderne, a skyscraper with luxury condominiums, the 833 East Michigan office building, and the Potawatomi Hotel and tower. Future skyscrapers include the 44-story Couture, a 34-story mixed-use tower with high-end residential apartments and retail space by Northwestern Mutual, and the 32-story Northwestern Mutual Tower and Commons.
