Milwaukee

Kilbourn Reservoir Park

The Kilbourn Reservoir was once the high-ground from which drinking water flowed to many Milwaukee households. Unused for decades, it was then a gated and overgrown mound that one of the city's longest streets, North Avenue, had to circumvent on its way from Holton Street east towards the Prospect-North hub, the North Point Water Tower and Lake Michigan. Now thanks to the Milwaukee Water Works and plenty of input from the site's Riverwest neighbors, it's a park with arguably the best views in the city.

After the City of Milwaukee created a plan to connect streets and blocks through 27 riverfront acres known as the Beerline, Mandel Group followed the Beerline design guidelines to create Trostel Square, one of seven Beerline Developments. Visible down Booth Street on the bluff is Roots Restaurant, designed by Kubala Washatko Architects. Trostel is designed by Engberg Anderson Architects. The development extends Milwaukee's Riverwalk, which has built values through public access to the riverfront.
