The firm developed Rhythm, Milwaukee’s first “micro-unit” apartment building; Black Cat Alley, a defunct alley turned public arts space; the Crossroads Collective food hall; and Ascent MKE, the world’s tallest mass timber building.

Highlights from the past 12 months: “We refinanced Ascent despite a very difficult interest rate environment. That success speaks to the quality and viability of our developments and helped form the basis for the launch of Timber + Partners. We also completed Nova MKE, which laid the foundation for us to expand to Green Bay, the first expansion beyond the greater Milwaukee market.”
