Hey, did they ever get a new restaurant to go in where the Chancery used to be on Downer? It’s been 13 years since it closed back in 2007. It’s a great location for a restaurant in that neighborhood. Wonder why they can’t get anyone in there.
Likewise, in Shorewood. We used to have three (or four) grocery stores back in the 1900s (A&P, Kohls, and Shore-View Shop Rite, + Sendiks). Shorewood now has about 20 or 30 various hair salons, tanning outlets, and other spa-like storefront outlets, but only one food market. What’s up with that? A community with about 15,000 people can only support a single grocery store? Kroger’s Metro Market on Oakland isn’t bad, but as a so-called walk-able community, about two-thirds of residents here are nowhere near what I’d think is its most needed retail market category. Maybe Steph will be able to solve that riddle in her new job here in Shorewood. Please no more integument salons.
Michael,
The Lower East Side has for years been known as the state’s most population-dense neighborhood. In this story, you crown Shorewood with that title. What is your source, please?
Best Wishes for even greater success for our Steph Salvia! She is tops!
@Keith – For a municipality as a whole, Shorewood is denser than Milwaukee.
On a neighborhood basis, the Census Bureau says the area around S. Cesar Chavez Dr. is the densest in Milwaukee.
