A combination of private donations and government grants are expected to be necessary to pay for the project. The city has already set aside $3 million in tax incremental financing for the project.

GRAEF was selected in October 2015 by a group of downtown and lakefront “stakeholders” as the winning design for the project. The Graef team is based in Milwaukee and includes PFS Studio of Vancouver, British Columbia, Rinka Chung Architecture of Milwaukee, Dan Euser Water Architecture of Richmond Hill, Ontario, and locally-based NEWaukee.
