Milwaukee, WI — World-class artist David Middlebrook is giving Riverwest a new landmark: a spectacular sculpture in Gordon Park. The arch-shaped sculpture will be installed at the entryway to the park, facing the southeast corner of the Humboldt Boulevard and Locust Street intersection. The arch marks the beginning of the new Beerline Trail and will be visible to thousands of commuters each day.

McGee Proposes Ordinance to Allow Cruising through Riverwest
June 17–New legislation sponsored by Ald. Mike McGee, a “Substitute resolution relating to designated sites for cruising,” is suggesting a pilot program to allow cruising in part of the 6th District.
Specifically, the resolution would make a cruising corridor out of Capitol between 5th and Humboldt on weekends starting in mid-July and continuing through the end of September. Cruisers would turn down Humboldt or 5th for the turnaround, likely going through Vienna, Nash, or Keefe Avenues before heading back up to Capitol.
