As the artistic hub of the city, Downtown Milwaukee is home to more than 40 art galleries. It is also home to places like the Milwaukee Public Museum, the Streets of Old Milwaukee, and the Milwaukee Riverwalk. Downtown Milwaukee is home to several smaller neighborhoods, each adding their own unique flair to the city center. These neighborhoods include the financial hub of East Town, the chic and trendy Historic Third Ward, the sports hub of Westown, and the elegant North End.

Property Ratings at Journal Commons
The building has really good noise cancellation and despite the location, kept out a good amount of noise from the bars around the corner and event-goers at the Fiserv. The biggest drawback is the parking. Not only is it not owned by F3, but it is opened up and sold at any game/event/concert happening at the Fiserv. The company that owns it has raised the price 3 times in the year I lived here, from $175 to $180 to $190 (before fees) within 6 months. The public can access the building through the parking garage elevators and stairs and the garage continuously leaves calcium deposits on cars parked under the water lines. Other than that, I would recommend this place.
