MKE Regenerates
By 2 Cents
If there was one word to describe Milwaukee as, it would be “regenerative”. Where other cities are demolishing the old to build condos and the like, we’re re-purposing our empty buildings into new and better things, while keeping a large part of Milwaukee’s history intact. Our city is one to rebuild from within. If you look around you’ll see old warehouses turned into boutique hotels, apartments & retail while keeping the original characteristics; valuing the salvaged cream city brick, old wooden beams & character left behind.
With the historical society’s 75th anniversary this year, we wanted to focus more on the history that we’ve kept within Milwaukee, the hints and remnants of what once existed and where you can still touch & see it. Hopefully it will give you a fresh insight into the city and a new intrigue about the places you pass every day. Milwaukee is constantly regenerating as we renew the places & spaces that make this city so unique.
