Van Buren - a major street - is down to one lane in each direction. No traffic. Same was true of 794 a decade ago. Opponents of removal are loud, but no example of a city removing an urban highway and regretting it exists. I commend @MayorMKE for supporting the 794 removal.…
Mayor Cavalier Johnson backs boulevard to replace I-794 Downtown urbanmilwaukee.com/2024/04/16/may…
"I support a reconfiguration of Interstate 794 in downtown Milwaukee,” said Mayor Johnson during his inauguration speech Tuesday morning at City Hall. “It offers a chance to maximize growth and maximize investment while keeping transportation connectivity here in the city.”

25 years ago a bloviating fearmonger ran for mayor of Milwaukee literally on a campaign to keep the useless elevated highway spur in this location and he won 44% of the vote 🤯

This is the kind of thinking Milwaukee needs. @ThirdWardMKE @MilwaukeeDCD @MilwDowntown @TearDown794 @CavalierJohnson @MayorMKE onmilwaukee.com/articles/794-p…
Looks good, let's do it.
The traffic argument against removing 794 is the silliest. Any option the DOT goes with will ultimately lead to the ramps being inoperable for over a year. Also, no new traffic is actually being added to city streets. Instead of VB, cars just exit at 6th (more efficiently too).

Milwaukee, 2023 & 2030
Here's my look at some of the MKE county election results from last night. The MPS referendum is interesting. Support for the referendum correlates somewhat w/race. It won majority white wards & lost the rest. But it correlates MUCH more with kids. law.marquette.edu/facultyblog/20…
Huge news! USDOT awarded IDOT an RCN grant to restore the original street grid on Chicago's West Side! "Part of being a public steward is admitting when you got it wrong. The Eisenhower Expressway has divided communities for 70 years. That ends now," said IDOT Sec. Omer Osman.
This would be my proposal for 71. Use the land sales to finance the highway removal and improvements. No need for federal financing…just local leadership and MoDOT partnership.
Apartment construction starts are rapidly declining, BUT not just because banks are pulling back on lending. That's not even the No. 1 reason. The biggest reason? The math no longer works. "Project is not economically feasible at this time" was the No. 1 reason for delays…

The next stage of Milwaukee’s flourishing beer garden renaissance should be bringing back beer garden observation towers. This one, which today is where Roosevelt Middle School of the Arts is at 8th/Walnut, would have pretty great views of downtown. And shelter from the rain!

Milwaukee - 113k. Probably why it was left off this list of peer cities. We simply have unmatched density in the Midwest outside of Chicago. There’s a reason MKE has the “big city, small town” feel that nowhere else in the Midwest has and only few in the US have. 📷 @natevomhof
