Real Estate & Development Conference was a ‘Developers Fantasy Camp’
Imagine you have been appointed king of Milwaukee for a day. You hold all the chips, you press all the buttons and you pull all the levers. And you are a commercial real estate developer.
What is the one dream project you would do?
BizTimes asked that question to three of southeastern Wisconsin’s most prolific, accomplished and visionary commercial real estate developers. They presented their dream projects at the 10th annual BizTimes Commercial Real Estate & Development Conference.
The theme of the 2012 conference was “Developers Fantasy Camp.” The panelists who presented their dream projects at the conference were:
-
Gary Grunau, president of Grucon Group in Milwaukee. Grunau has more than 40 years of construction and development experience. Grunau’s downtown Milwaukee development projects include the Grand Avenue Middle School, the Milwaukee Education Center, the Hyatt Regency, Schlitz Park, the Wisconsin Center, Discovery World at Pier Wisconsin, the Milwaukee Riverwalk System, the Time Warner Building, the Boston Store Revitalization, as well as ManpowerGroup’s world headquarters.
-
Bob Monnat, partner and chief operating officer of Mandel Group Inc. in Milwaukee. Monnat joined Mandel Group in 1999 after previous experience with the company’s predecessor, Trammel Crow Residential. He also served as vice president of Wispark Corp. Monnat oversees Mandel Group’s three primary disciplines: development, construction and property management. Monnat specializes in multi-family and mixed use development, including urban revitalization, in-fill development, brownfield redevelopment and traditional neighborhood development. As chief operating officer of Milwaukee-based Mandel Group, Monnat has been involved in the development of several major building projects, including University Club Tower, the North End and the East Pointe Commons projects in downtown Milwaukee, Gaslight Lofts in the Historic Third Ward and the LightHorse 4041 project now under construction in Shorewood.

WiRED is a boutique real estate development, consulting and construction firm passionate about the development and redevelopment of communities. The company believes in the value of connectedness - the social connections between people and their physical links to the community. Williams is the owner of WiRED Properties, a Milwaukee-based boutique real estate development, construction and consulting firm. WiRED’s developments include The Cornerstone, a mixed-use project on Oakland Avenue in Shorewood, and Ravenna, another mixed-use project now under construction in Shorewood.

The panelists of developers made their case for community support for each of their dream projects to judges at the conference. The judges included Mark Eppli, interim James H. Keyes Dean of Business Administration and Robert B. Bell Sr. Chair in Real Estate at Marquette University, Jim Villa president of CARW and Andrew Weiland, managing editor of BizTimes Milwaukee.
The 2012s BizTimes Commercial Real Estate Conference was interactive in real time. Members of the audience had the opportunity to comment on Twitter about each of the projects with their smart phones and iPads during the conference. Members of the audience also voted on which project would provide the best value to the community.
The BizTimes Commercial Real Estate Conference is presented annually in partnership with the Robert B. Bell Sr. Chair in Real Estate at Marquette University and the Commercial Association of Realtors
