King Drive building to become VA office

April 9, 2014 by Wangard

Article posted April 07, 2014 on JSOnline.com

A local investment group has purchased two neighboring properties on Milwaukee’s King Drive, and will convert one into offices for a federal agency.

The buildings, at 1818 and 1830 N. King Drive, were sold to an affiliate of Wangard Partners Inc. for $525,000, according to state real estate records.

The two-story, 8.900-square-foot office building at 1818 N. King Drive was last used by nonprofit Strive Media Institute Inc., which closed in 2008. The one-story, 4,600-square-foot building at 1830 N. King Drive is the former home of Tri-State Home Improvement Co., which now operates at 8018 W. Capitol Drive.

The larger building will be converted into a Department of Veterans Affairs office, said Burton Metz, a Wangard vice president. The firm doesn’t yet have plans to announce for the other property, he said Monday.

The buildings were sold to 1818 MLK Drive LLC by Chicago-based IFF, a nonprofit community development financial institution, according to state real estate records.

MLK Drive building sold for restoration into Veterans Affairs office

April 9, 2014 by Wangard

Article posted April 07, 2014 on BizJournals.com

A Wangard Partners Inc. affiliate bought a building on North Martin Luther King Jr. Drive and will renovate it into offices for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

Wangard, Milwaukee, will use historic tax credits to restore the 1925 building at 1830 N. Martin Luther King Jr. Drive, said Burton Metz, vice president for Milwaukee-based Wangard. It most recently was used as an office, but in the 1920s was a horse and carriage house, he said.

The developer has secured a lease agreement with the VA to establish a new Milwaukee office there, Metz said. The VA will lease the entire 7,500-square-foot building, he said.

City agrees to funding for Wangard project

February 17, 2014 by Wangard

Wauwatosa has approved $3.3 million in city financing for the cleanup and redevelopment of the former Western Metals site, immediately north of the Grede Foundry, off State Street.

The funding includes almost $1.8 million for environmental cleanup at the site and another $1.5 million to repay the developer, Wangard Partners, for its planned investment in infrastructure.

Wangard has worked for months to win approval for 169 apartments in six buildings at the 9.4-acre site in the 1200 block of North 62nd Street.

Its first proposal, made in July, was rejected by the Plan Commission, and it came back in August with a more urban-looking design that increased the density and better matched its neighbors, such as The Enclave complex nearby.

Wangard moves forward with State Street proposal

August 14, 2013 by Wangard

A residential development proposal for State Street just west of Walgreens that met a hostile reception at last month’s Plan Commission meeting came back in a radically modified form and was easily approved Monday night. Wangard Partners had proposed a 126-unit apartment complex at the site, comprised of house-like structures with matching rooflines and garage and surface parking. Working with a new architect, Wangard came back with a proposal of higher density — 169 units on the 9.4 acre site — and a mixture of flat and peaked roofs, with more parking hidden. The project, estimated at $24 million, would have four-story, 32- and 58-unit “bookend” buildings that have flat-roof overhangs, balconies and varied materials and depths reminiscent of The Enclave development across the street. “I think this is a 100 percent improvement,” said Alderman Dennis McBride, who is not a member of the commission but represents the district that includes the site. “And I’m very happy to see it.” Read the entire article at WauwatosaNow.com »

Regal Beloit Corporation needed a new office building that would express their recent corporate rebranding effort and house their International IT Headquarters. Through an efficient design and value- engineering process, the Wangard team was able to design and match the specifications of a new facility to meet the detailed needs of Regal Beloit. The project consists of 45,000 square feet of office space in the Village of Grafton, Wisconsin directly across from their previous building.
