Complex of buildings in the Menomonee River Valley owned by Frank Giuffre. The proposed City Lights Brewing Co. would locate in two buildings in the complex. As of August 2015, tenants include Zimmerman Architectural Studios and the 4 Seasons Skate Park.
The buildings were designed by Alexander Eschweiler. The complex is highly visible from Interstate 94.
The complex was built for the Milwaukee Gas Light Co.
The complex is made up of four parcels and four buildings. The largest building is 41,000 square-feet. The other buildings have sizes of 5,452 sq-ft, 6,250 sq-ft and 17,695 sq-ft (4 Seasons Skate Park building). In addition, two newer warehouses buildings exist on the eastern portion of the land, one that is 5,851 sq-ft (built in 1943) and another at 1,440 sq-ft. A trucking terminal also exists on the site, built in 1969 at a size of 18,410 sq-ft.
The southern portion of the site borders the Menomonee River.

HMI Doors Open 2011 Recommendations
Imagine this for a moment -- you’re a kid in a candy store, and as things go, this candy store is opening for the first time ever and only for one weekend. Oh gosh. You’ve dreamed of this cornucopia of confections so many times before, you know every name and shiny wrapper in the store... but your eyes are bigger than your stomach. How can you pick just a choice few, knowing your slight allowance won’t let you have all that you want? It’s the best and worst kind of agony.
