Jackson Street Holdings LLC is proposing a $279.6 million development at Fourth Street and Wisconsin Avenue in downtown Milwaukee that would include three hotels totaling 506 rooms, 130,000 square feet of convention space and 22,000 square feet of street level restaurants, bars and cafés. The project, to be called Nexus, would fully integrate the city’s planned streetcar. The guest rooms would be located in two towers. The northwest triangular-shaped tower would include 150 rooms. The 270-foot east tower includes 20 floors, with two hotels totaling 356 guestrooms and suites. City of Milwaukee officials are currently reviewing the proposal, along with a proposal from Marcus Hotels & Resorts for the same site.
