Situated just west of downtown, the Historic Concordia Neighborhood features some of Milwaukee’s greatest historic properties.  Concordia was once home to beer barons, motorcycle moguls, and Concordia University, which gave the neighborhood its name.  Today, Concordia is one of Milwaukee’s most unique and diverse neighborhoods – and 2015 marks an exciting beginning in our newest chapter.

In addition to the historic homes, tour goers can enjoy a silent auction, cake-and-pie social, local food trucks, a home-by-home scavenger hunt, and of course, a beer tasting tent!

“Live, Work and Stay,” the theme of this year’s home tour, recognizes Concordia’s distinctive housing options, accessibility and proximity to the metro area, and employment options at some of Wisconsin’s most iconic institutions.  In 2015, Concordia welcomes the Near West Side Partners LLC, a partnership between Aurora Sinai, Marquette University, Forest County Potawatomi, MillerCoors, and Harley Davidson.  Each of these Milwaukee anchor institutions are walkable from the Concordia Neighborhood.

Join us on June 20th to get a glimpse of our great neighborhood.  From historic mansions to homes in the midst of revitalization, the “Live, Work and Stay!” home tour will offer a view into Concordia’s past and vision of our bright future.
