It seems to be a trend. Or at least that's what the Wall Street Journal article posted in the Newsroom of the Metropolitan Place Phase II website seems to suggest. The story is available for download under the title "Alumni Buy Condos for Game Day Near Campuses." More at my blog, Letter from Here.
"Algoma, WI"
After a full day of shooting with a flat white sky, some color popped up on the horizon as we came up to the lake. I went a different direction for my picture of the day, but I still love how this one turned out.
Originally shot for day 95 of 365, 1/14/12, with my friend Shawn.
Milwaukee, WI (Milwaukee County)
Milwaukee is the largest city in the state of Wisconsin and the fifth-largest city in the Midwestern United States. The seat of Milwaukee County, the city is located on Lake Michigan's southwestern shore and was incorporated in 1846. As of the U.S. Census Bureau's July 1, 2019 estimate, Milwaukee had a population of 590,157, making it the 31st largest city in the United States and the fourth-largest city situated along one of the Great Lakes.
The first large wave of settlement to the areas that would later become Milwaukee County and the City of Milwaukee began in 1835, following removal of the tribes in the Council of Three Fires. Early that year it became known that Juneau and Kilbourn intended to lay out competing town-sites. By the year's end both had purchased their lands from the government and made their first sales. There were perhaps 100 new settlers in this year, mostly from New England and other Eastern states. On September 17, 1835, the first election was held in Milwaukee; the number of votes cast was 39.
