What could an Aerotropolis look like around MKE? The Challenge:

  • “Aerotropolis” is somewhat conceptual—what can realistically be achieved in

Milwaukee?

  • Much of the land around MKE is already developed—but there are significant

redevelopment opportunities and areas that are still undeveloped

  • Every affected community already has its own plans and projects within its

boundaries—this plan can help coordinate efforts around a shared vision of airport-

  • riented economic development
  • Height and other restrictions on development near the Airport need to be identified

and considered when planning for growth

What is the purpose of the plan?

  • Establish a shared vision and coordinated effort to capitalize on the Airport in order

to enhance the quality of life, stimulate economic investment, and promote job growth in surrounding communities

How is the plan organized?

  • Land Use Recommendations (Chapter 3)
  • Aerotropolis Growth Areas (proximity to Airport, ability to accommodate Aerotropolis-

supporting land uses, available vacant or underutilized land)

  • Catalytic Aerotropolis Areas (areas that have the potential to drive change in Growth

Areas)

  • Contributing Aerotropolis Areas (support the Aerotropolis concept)
  • Transportation Recommendations (Chapter 4)
  • Streets and Highways
  • Transit
  • Freight Transportation
  • Bicycle and Pedestrian

Next Steps

  • Communities are encouraged to consider endorsing the plan and

incorporating its recommendations into their comprehensive plans to demonstrate their continued commitment to Aerotropolis Milwaukee

  • The Gateway to Milwaukee and SEWRPC staff are working with each

community to determine how best to endorse the plan

  • With modest changes to local comprehensive plans and zoning,

implementing these plans will achieve the vision for Aerotropolis Milwaukee
