MILWAUKEE | 700 E Kilbourn | ~415 FT | 37 FLOORS
Another big proposal for Milwaukee:

I didn't put MILWAUKEE in all caps, can a mod fix that?

^LVDW, someone over at SSC said they found an elevation with a graphic scale on it and that the building actually scales out to ~400' tall, so for now, i'm gonna put that in the thread title, unless you have better info that the building will be closer to 350'.
anyway, it looks like a good project for milwaukee. the design looks interesting, but it has that kind of "it looks pretty cool as a rendering , but it could be an utter train wreck once the VE vultures rip it apart" look. sort of like what happened with The Moderne. |
Milwaukee has always peaked my interest, looks like it is on the verge of a building boom of sorts.

actually, i just found the elevation in question and scaled it myself. the total height to the top of the mechanical screen parapet is ~415'.
and according to the exterior elevations, the building has 35 numbered floors, plus a penthouse level, so it's really 36 floors high. lots of juicy info about the project can be found in this pdf: http://city.milwaukee.gov/ImageLibra...urnasof090.pdf |
I love how much info the City of Milwaukee puts out there. It seems their government really has their shit together from a planning perspective.
Where did the Milwaukee Compilation thread go? Did it die? I heard that the North End Phase III broke ground and that's a big f-ing deal, like 300 units or something. |

here it is: Milwaukee | Development News the problem is that we have very few milwaukee forumers here at SSP, so milwaukee threads tend to fall quickly. SSC is much more active for milwaukee development discussion. |

This project has a leg up on the Couture in that it won’t be facing lawsuits and doesn’t require a land sale approval from local government. One has to feel the market for high end apartments will be saturated in the next 5 years but I would bet this one makes makes it off the ground because everything is lined up. The Couture or some project will still be built on that spot because it is prime real estate, it might be another phase of the North End, Avenir, or the proposed complex on Prospect by Dominion Properties that suffers instead.

it's not a train wreck, but it was VE'ed pretty bad. just compare a rendering of it to the finished product. http://urbanmilwaukee.com/wp-content...07rgblarge.jpg http://condos.themoderne.net/img/condos/home-tower.jpg source: http://urbanmilwaukee.com/2013/06/17...f-its-swagger/ source: http://condos.themoderne.net/ |

a post from SSC, it looks like this could be a potential 20 story apartment building proposed across the street from the 700 E Kilbourn proposal.

from an SSC forumer. it looks like this one could be heading toward a shrinkage. however, even with 7 fewer floors, it would still be tall enough to have a pretty good skyline impact.
