The Old Made New
Three projects near downtown are helping to rebuild a neighborhood and regenerate a river.

The sound of saws spinning and metal mashing were heard from Walker’s Point to the Historic Third Ward. The sounds stemmed from three projects that continue the redevelopment of near downtown neighborhoods.
In the Third Ward the city-financed section of the Riverwalk, which will connect MIAD to Ryan Braun’s, is slowly flowing towards completion, finishing a project that has helped make the once-dormant river an active, exciting place.

Thanks so much for the Friday photos. For quite awhile now I have been meaning to thank Urban Milwaukee for sharing. I gather that many of your readers are former-Milwaukeeans; these photos have helped keep us all informed of what is going on in our wonderful city.
Just curious but what is going on with the Potowatomi Hotel? Have they put up a crane yet? I live in Minneapolis so I check out your site often to get my MKE fix.
Thx
Jack
@Jack Good question. I haven’t been down to the site in a bit, but I’ll get there soon for some photos.
@Jason No, thank you for reading Urban Milwaukee!
I am excited for the remaking of the Junior House – down the block from my own house. The Water Accelerator will also be a welcomed addition to our Walker’s Point neighborhood. Lots happening south of downtown. Several additional projects in the works too – will be fun to announce in the months ahead. I am especially grateful that Tyler Hawley is not only investing in this area, but he is also a resident and neighbor.
