Milwaukee is such a great city with so much potential, but these blue glass towers are homogenizing this great city and sucking the life out of it. It's a city with so much history and inspiration to pull from for design, why the hell are we building these soulless monoliths.

If I were to make an educated guess, the new residential development they are hinting at will probably be along Water St between Juneau and Knapp on the lot they recently purchased. What I'm waiting for and what I would really love to see is the lots directly south of me taken care of also. I live in Juneau Towers and the MSOE lots just south of State St between Jackson and Milwaukee need to go. They are primed for development. MSOE is really the only thing holding back the density of that area of downtown. |

Well the sorely-needed widening of I-94, a log-jammed and unsafe major artery from the western suburbs into downtown, has officially been cancelled. Ironically, the Democrats that sued to stop the project, referring to it as "racist", are now complaining that it has been cancelled.

Fuck highway widening. Move into the city if you don't like commuting in traffic. You can't build your way out of congestion.

Driverless vehicle lanes on I-94 being studied for Foxconn

A bit OT, but what’s the point of autonomous cars? Is driving that inconvenient, or do people want to play on their phones THAT much that we need robots to drive us to and from our destinations? Personally, I love driving, and would never want to give that up to be a passenger in my own car.

Guys the lanes are for autonomous freight vehicles. Apparently they will be receiving lots of parts directly from the airport and want to have a ROW for driverless freight vehicles which I don't believe are driving on US roads at this time. If they are going to have that kind of traffic and are trying out autonomous techology, I don't see why it wouldn't make sense. Hell, even once this tech is ready for the masses, it will still make sense to build autonomous Lanes on highways to separate slower human traffic so the autonomous ones can go at high speeds in tight convoys. You can't have a human try to jump in with robots tailgating each other at 100MPH.
