2011 Downtown Milwaukee: Night Out
According to the Sociable City Network, nighttime economies attract other economic development and the creative class that have catalyzed the renaissance of notable cities worldwide. Tapping the after-5 potential can be prosperous investments that drive community revitalization, increase residential and commercial property value and generate much-needed city revenue and employment.

In response to the rapid growth of downtown Milwaukee’s nighttime economy, Milwaukee Downtown, BID #21 retained the services of the Responsible Hospitality Institute (RHI) to help plan and better manage this booming industry.

Open For Business

In 2004, the Marquette Interchange began its four-year, $810 million redesign. To combat negative perceptions that downtown Milwaukee was inaccessible during reconstruction, Milwaukee Downtown rallied community spokespersons to share the story that downtown was open for business and would remain a 24-hour downtown for living, working and playing.
