Rebuild the Grid

Apr 23rd, 2010 | By | Category: Historic Third Ward

Recently, the City of Milwaukee has been moving forward with street improvements such as the “complete street” reconstruction of S. 2nd Street in Walker’s Point which is scheduled for construction this summer, and the conversion of one-way streets to two-way streets such as the E. State Street project currently under construction, but there is more that can be done to enhance streets in Milwaukee to build a better city.

In fact we’ve just moved into UrbanMilwaukee.com’s new office in downtown Milwaukee, and are doubling down on our efforts to Champion Life in the Cream City.
