Milwaukee's Historic Third Ward district is a fascinating and architecturally impressive commercial, arts, and residential area with a wealth of creative businesses and artists. Located at the mouth of the Milwaukee River, this former warehouse district has become a booming mixed-use area with a lot of charm. The neighborhood is located on a short peninsula wedged between the convergence of the Milwaukee and Kinnickinnick rivers that flow into Lake Michigan.
The neighborhood is home to award-winning restaurants, the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design, dozens of galleries, and unique specialty stores. Renters in the Third Ward have plenty rental options to choose from, like converted warehouse lofts and new apartment communities with skyline and waterfront views. The Milwaukee Public Market offers local vendors, fresh produce, and a social energy that makes the area hard to ignore.
