Freshwater Plaza

Wauwatosa-based Wangard Partners plans to build a mixed use development called Freshwater Plaza at a site northeast of South First Street and Greenfield Avenue in Milwaukee’s Walker’s Point neighborhood. The project will include: a 42,000-square-foot Cermak Fresh Market grocery store; a 45,750-square-foot office building; a four-story L-shaped building at the corner of First and Greenfield with 15,900 square feet of retail space and apartments on the upper floors; a 3,700-square-foot bank building; and a 3,600-square-foot multi-tenant retail building.

The plans also include a 226-space parking structure between the grocery store and the office building and 289 surface parking spaces. The development site is just west of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee School of Freshwater Sciences building, and is just east of the Rockwell Automation corporate headquarters.
