Park Lafayette

Park Lafayette is the first project for developer Warren Barr, of Renaissant Development Group LLC, in Milwaukee and it is worth stopping in the sales center to see the level of quality he delivers. Not only can your tour the two bedroom model but you can also check the view from every unit in the building. The project itself has approximately 292 households per acre which should only add to the Eastside's already buzzing vibrancy. And although not affordable units per se the majority of the units in the building start in the 200's allowing for a wider range of buyers to enter the market than many of the other developments in Milwaukee currently. To follow this development I've started a flickr set, Park Lafayette that I will update with new pictures to keep track of the progress.

The Edge

For a quite sometime it appeared this project may not ever get built as no progress had been taken place on the site but finally progress can been seen at the site as work has begun on the foundation. This is great news as The Edge includes one of the missing Riverwalk pieces needed to complete the Beerline section and will include the cleanup of a contaminated property. Additionally this project has a creative design and once completed will have 133 units running in the range of $200,000 to $300,000.

The North End

The Mandel Group's North End development is easily the most exciting project under development in Milwaukee. The first phase alone will include 109 condos, 88 apartments and 25,000 square feet of retail space. Work has begun on the demolition of the Pfister & Vogel tannery in preparation for construction. The water tower was removed from the roof as it is being saved and will eventually be located near Water and Pleasant.
