No one can ever accuse The Neutral Project of not thinking big.

The Madison-based real estate development firm is pursuing a $700 million, multi-building complex at the site of the Marcus Performing Arts Center parking structure, 1001 N. Water St, according to a press release by the City of Milwaukee.

The multi-building development would include what would become the tallest building in Wisconsin and also the tallest mass timber building in the world.

A rendering depicts three new structures, as well as another: the completion of The Neutral Project’s neighboring The Edison mass timber apartment tower. Construction is expected to begin on that 32-story building this year. Test piles are currently being driven for the building’s foundation.

The new complex would primarily be housing, but also include a hotel, office space, retail space and a replacement parking structure.

now, this long-rumored project is still all very pie in the sky right now, but it's still cool to see imagery for what could possibly become a new tallest building for Milwaukee, if the stars align.

The developer still needs to finance and build the adjacent Edison development (on the left along the river in the first image above) before tackling this considerably bigger fish.
