Milwaukee

The Milwaukee Riverwalk System began in 1993, as a means to offer public access to the river. Once complete, the Riverwalk will extend 3.1 miles along both sides of the Milwaukee River, from the site of the former North Avenue Dam, through Downtown and the Historic Third Ward to Lake Michigan. #LikeALocal
