Another big proposal for Milwaukee:

Fitzgerald's work is getting progressively less heinous with time and Milwaukee's skyline is continuing to remain white...

Chicago Firm Unveils Designs for 35-Story Tower

Carroll Properties is moving forward with their proposal for a 35-story luxury apartment building on the northeast corner of N. Van Buren St. and E. Kilbourn Ave. Located in the heart of East Town, the new tower would include between 224 and 275 apartments and up to 10,000 square-feet of first-floor commercial space. Designed by FitzGerald Associates of Chiciago, the building is the first entry into the Milwaukee market for Carroll Properties.

The 28,504 square-foot site at 700 E. Kilbourn Ave. is occupied with two surface parking lots and a building that most recently housed Edwardo’s restaurant. That building would be demolished for the project. The land today is owned by Jim Wiechmann. Wiechmann is also involved in the proposed The Rhythm apartment building, which would replace The Curve tavern.
The proposed tower replaces a dead proposal on the site for the Bookends North apartment high-rise. That building was proposed by New Land Enterprises, but didn’t get off the ground when the developer couldn’t secure a loan guarantee from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (The Moderne secured was able to snag a loan guarantee and got built during the same period). The proposed Bookends North development did receive a zoning variance, which would be amended for this new project.
