Whether you are enoyin sunshine and oers or orkin on your chip shot, I hope you enjoy your time in Milwaukee County. Chris Abele, Milwaukee County Executive Something remarkable is occurring in the center of Milwaukee. Activity, excitement, and noteworthy changes are taking place at a pace that is unprecedented in this city's modern history. Some of the change is obvious. Cranes loom above rising structures. Downtown buildings are sprucing up with colorful signs and artwork. The sidewalks are busier as more people are working, living, and enjoying a night out in downtown. Some change is less obvious as investors are buying real estate and city government is building and improving our infrastructure. And there are strong signs that the trend of more investment and more activity will continue. Northwestern Mutual is not just building two new skyscrapers; they are adding employees and constructing apartments. The Milwaukee Bucks are not just building a new arena; they are planning an exciting new district that adds more retail and entertainment venues. I am optimistic about Milwaukee's future and the increasing opportunities for our residents and our visitors. 06 keymilwaukee.com Wisconsin's Best Fine Craft Fair • www.morninggloryfinecraftfair.com Ceramics • Digital Art • Fiber • Glass • Jewelry • Leather • Metal Mixed Media • Photography • Printmaking • Sculpture • Wood August 13 & 14, 2016 • 10am-5pm both days On the grounds of the Marcus Center for the Performing Arts and Red Arrow Park, 929 N.
