I'm from the area and have a couple of missing persons cases I think this could potentially be. Here are some men that have vanished within two hours of Milwaukee within the last 15-ish years that could have potential connections to that city. The Mitchell Park Domes are also a big tourist destination, but the area around them not so much. Whoever did this, whether it was a suicide or homicide, would have to know the area well in order to find that lagoon.

Hello, do you know if this body was ever identified?

I found a news article from Nov 2017 that says he was tentatively identified:
MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- The Milwaukee County Medical Examiner has tentatively identified the body as a 47-year-old man from the area who was reported missing in August of 2016. The ME is still looking for positive identification and says they will be confirming his ID through DNA testing.

The death is not suspicious.

I cannot find if they released the name. Identifying with DNA can take several months and sometimes up to a year to complete.
