A Sherwin-Williams paint store will return to Milwaukee’s Walker’s Point neighborhood with a 3,500-square-foot store in Wangard Partner’s Freshwater Plaza development.Sherwin-Williams, which was located for several years at First and Virginia streets before its lease expired about eight years ago, will be located in a new outlot between Cermak Fresh Market and N. First Street.“We believe there will be a strong commercial business now that there is a much stronger residential base in the Walker’s Point neighborhood,” said Stewart Wangard, chairman and CEO of Wangard Partners.Wangard will begin construction on the store next month with construction expected to be complete in about six months.Several of the retail stores have already opened and a coffee shop will open in the L-shaped building this summer. Cermak opened in June.“The grocery store has been doing a steady business that is starting to build,” Wangard said. “Not everyone is aware it is there yet. There have been some stories written, but it still takes awhile to get the story out.”Wangard is also in negotiations with the city for another outlot on the property, south of the Sherwin-Williams building. Wangard said he is still in negotiations with a variety of users for the building and would not comment on square footage.Freshwater Plaza was officially dedicated this past June and is the gateway to the Inner Harbor District.View the entire article as recently published by the BizTimes and Corrinne Hess.
