About Us
a generational opportunity
Encompassing 90 acres adjacent to downtown Milwaukee, Lake Michigan, Lincoln Memorial Drive, and various lakefront institutions and destinations, with ties to world-renowned place makers (Frederick Law Olmstead, Eero Saarinen, Santiago Calatrava) and local award-winning chefs, Veterans Park is a well-situated, expansive, and unique gathering place. We believe that this space should enhance the lives of all who want to enjoy the space, and build off of our park's rich history to establish Veterans Park as a world class urban gathering place.
