Since 3/15/2020, I have been a productive and devoted remote worker. My dog and I both love it! Its the wave of the present, and four-day work weeks are coming up quick for many of us.
I see a token presence at the HD Museum in MKE’s future. If the news were better, they would have announced it.
This is not especially good for the Near West Side. “Another news outlet” reported that the filing with the city of Milwaukee indicates the HD has plans to subdivide its property, which includes a large amount of surface parking spaces. The filing indicates the purpose of the move is to “redivide lots to facilitate land transfer.” I dunno. is this residential? Light industrial? Maybe a reduced HD presence?
And, frankly, when I read, “however, we are a U.S. company with a global workforce, and we believe that promoting an agile way of working will be key to our future success, I hear “we gotta get to the coasts more easily that what MKE can offer, and maybe we should join Johnson Controls in moving our real HQ to the Cork, IE where we can avoid most all taxes.”
@Polaris – That is correct. There is a pending certified survey map (parcel reconfiguration) request to create two parcels from the parking lots. The layout doesn’t exactly match how the lots themselves are laid out today. Parcels covering private roads, following 38th and Juneau, would also be created.
