Milwaukee Condo & Real Estate Scene

The Business Journal of Milwaukee: Manpower to bring dollars downtown - Building could spur $100 million in new projects

How big of a deal is Manpower's move to downtown Milwaukee? At least $2 million annually on the downtown economy and up to $100 million in surrounding real estate development. More than 900 employees will be arriving at their new address in September. Starting in September, nearby restaurants, bars, and retail stores will be experiencing an increase in traffic as a result of this move.

Rich Rovito, writer for The Business Journal of Milwaukee, reports that Manpower employees are already buying downtown condominiums and renting apartments near the new corporate headquarters, which is located south of Cherry Street on Martin Luther King Jr. Drive. According to Rovito, "The Metropolitan Milwaukee Association of Commerce has projected that Manpower employees will spend $2.1 million annually in downtown Milwaukee, including $1.5 million on food and beverages."
