Proposed high-rise would add up to 275 "ultra luxury" apartments to downtown Milwaukee -- with no public financing. Back to the full article.
It be great if developers of this & other new apartment buildings acknowledged & supported the growing trend of biking around the city by building a secured ground floor space with easy outdoor access for bike storage and maintenance/repair. What a great way to attract and accommodate city dwellers who use 2 wheels to travel in town. Maybe a Vulture Space #2?
@Lisa H I believe they intend to do secured ground floor space for bikes… Not a shop per se but easy storage for tenants.
@Lisa you will also be happy to know that as part of its renovations the Wells Building (recently profiled here on UM) added a secure first floor space with easy outdoor access for bike storage.
Great news about Wells Building’s bike space. Maybe add a tire pump, Allen wrench, & a few other tools to the bike room…all secured to the wall with cables, of course.
Under next steps you list “3. Common Council.” Was that passed today?
Ordinance 1 Ordinance 2
@Mike Yes. It received unanimous approval.
700 E. Kilborn high rise: Bring it!
Any news on this development? I can’t find anything about this project anywhere.
@Katie,
This one has been pretty quiet for a long time now, which often enough means no project.. But we’ll see.
