It was my 2011 Milwaukee event pick of the year. So I'm thrilled that Historic Milwaukee's Doors Open Milwaukee event will be back again this year.
Mark Sept. 22-23 on your calendars as you'll have the chance to tour several iconic buildings in Downtown Milwaukee. A preliminary list is here. Many of the locations offer exclusive access and views that aren't normally available to the general public.
It's all free, too, and most buildings will be open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days.
See you there.
A life-long and passionate community leader and Milwaukeean, Jeff Sherman is a co-founder of OnMilwaukee.
He grew up in Wauwatosa and graduated from Marquette University, as a Warrior. He holds an MBA from Cardinal Stritch University, and is the founding president of Young Professionals of Milwaukee (YPM)/Fuel Milwaukee.
Early in his career, Sherman was one of youngest members of the Greater Milwaukee Committee, and currently is involved in numerous civic and community groups - including board positions at The Wisconsin Center District, Wisconsin Club and Marcus Center for the Performing Arts. He's honored to have been named to The Business Journal's "30 under 30" and Milwaukee Magazine's "35 under 35" lists.
He owns a condo in Downtown and lives in greater Milwaukee with his wife Stephanie, his son, Jake, and daughter Pierce. He's a political, music, sports and news junkie and thinks, for what it's worth, that all new movies should be released in theaters, on demand, online and on DVD simultaneously.
He also thinks you should read OnMilwaukee each and every day.
