a few short years ago, the naysayers would have outnumbered
the optimists. Today, Milwaukees Historic King Drive
neighborhood is making believers out of nearly everyone.
Thanks to the vision and commitment of the members and partners
of the Historic King Drive Business Improvement District (BID
#8), this diverse neighborhood has been transformed into a
lively mixture of national retailers, specialty shops and
quality housing. Since 1995 the two-mile stretch, which lies
adjacent to the north side of Downtown Milwaukee, has seen
over $200 million worth of new development. And the expansion
doesnt appear to be slowing down anytime soon.
Find out why the likes of Foot Locker, Ponderosa Steak House
and the Time Warner corporate headquarters have made their
home in this economically vibrant community.
