Rehabilitation Concept: Lindsay Bros Bldg, 5th Ward Milwaukee
This redevelopment concept suggests strategic interior renovations and structural modifications that would revitalize, repurpose and reposition a prominent, historic and underutilized industrial building at the entrance to the Walker’s Point Neighborhood
Complications: Significant investment required to meet current market expectations; prohibitively deep floor plates; atypical street and lower levels; surface parking not commensurate with square footage
Opportunities: Substantial square footage; attractive historical building in relatively good condition; high traffic, high visibility, prominent location at the entrance to an up-and-coming neighborhood near downtown
