family-friendly opportunities, regardless of winter
weather. Enjoy snowman-building or sledding at
one of our award-winning parks, or ice skate at
Red Arrow Park.
More relaxing options include a stroll through
Cathedral Square. Indoors, visit art galleries in
the Historic Third Ward, enjoy a concert at the
Marcus Center for The Performing Arts or take in
a play at one of our great theaters.
No matter what you chose to do, I hope you

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.
