Anyone driving in downtown Milwaukee has noticed the many new building projects like the Baird Center and those in the Deer District. But preserving Milwaukee’s history and iconic buildings is equally important. This video from Building Wisconsin TV features the historic preservation of the Germania Building built in downtown Milwaukee in 1896. Host Stuart Keith meets with construction manager Mark Klann from Cardinal Capital Management to learn about the interior demolition, planning and preservation. Also, Steve Breitlow from Plumbers Local 75 talks about the plumbing aspects in a historic remodel along with the workforce development opportunities that come from these types of projects.
