Real estate odds and ends

A groundbreaking ceremony was held Tuesday for a $12.6 million building project at Marquette University High School. The cornerstone of the building project is the student chapel at its threshold and a new two-story addition on the site of the former Jesuit residence. The project includes the student chapel, a new fine arts wing, two new physics classrooms and a physics lab, an Advanced Placement Biology classroom, an improved athletic facility, administrative offices and faculty meeting rooms. The building project is the result of the "Continue the Mission" campaign that has raised over $15 million to date. Founded in 1857, Marquette University High School moved to its present location in the Merrill Park neighborhood in Milwaukee in 1925.

Mike Mervis, the assistant to Zilber Ltd. founder Joseph Zilber, and Mary Ellen McCormack-Mervis recently donated a garden, called the Mervis/McCormack Brady Street Garden, to the City of Milwaukee. The garden was created on a formerly vacant lot at Holton, Water and Brady streets. It was designed by landscape architect Nancy Benninghouse of Firefly Garden Designs in Wauwatosa. The garden is dedicated to the memory of the Mervis’ parents, Francis and Christina McCormack and Jack and Harriett Mervis. "As long time members of the Brady Street Area Association, we have often looked at this underutilized piece of land in our city’s matrix and felt that we should do something to add to the enjoyment of our neighbors and fellow citizens," Mike and Mary Ellen said in a joint statement.
