Milwaukee-based commercial real estate firm Irgens is developing a one-story, 23,600-square-foot medical office building at the former site of the Venice Club restaurant at 1905 N. Calhoun Road in Brookfield.
The building, referred to as the Calhoun Health Center, will be anchored by Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin, which will lease 15,000 square feet for a health clinic for primary care, obstetrics, gynecology, maternal fetal medicine and imaging services at the new building.
There is an additional 8,600 square feet of space still available in the building for lease.
Lifetime OB/GYN, a practice brought into Froedtert & MCW health network in October, will relocate to the building from offices in Brookfield and Milwaukee.
Irgens will break ground on the development in April and plans to complete the project by December. The health center will be across the street from Brookfield City Hall and the public library.
“We continue to experience strong demand for our services in Waukesha County, and the Calhoun Road location will be convenient for our patients,” said Mark Lodes, MD, president, Froedtert & MCW Community Physicians.
Irgens acquired the Venice Club about a month after it closed in 2014. The Venice Club was an iconic restaurant with a long presence at Summerfest that opened in downtown Milwaukee in 1947 and moved to Brookfield in 1983.
