Marquette University announced Friday morning that it has sold 11-acres of land, at the northeast side of the Marquette Interchange, to Bear Development and Kacmarcik Enterprises for a new sports and entertainment district.
“This new development reimagines and promises to bring new life into a highly visible strategic corridor, presenting an exceptional opportunity to connect the Marquette University campus and Westown neighborhood with the Downtown Milwaukee renaissance,” Marquette President Michael Lovell said in a statement.
The new district will include a building of a sports stadium, an indoor concert venue, a full-service hotel, multi-family residential housing, retail and food and beverage elements.
