Celebrate the city that we love and call home – Milwaukee! Since 2010, 414 Day is dedicated not only to our area code but events, specials, people and our great community!

According to the Milwaukee Day website, “Milwaukee Day is a movement dedicated to celebrating the city we love, while inspiring positive, proactive action each April 14 or 4/14. We aim to create a platform for Milwaukee to celebrate, interact and create a better city at a grassroots level. In the spirit of Milwaukee’s unique DIY history, we choose to celebrate the things that make our city great and to inspire the efforts that will make our city a better place to live, work and call home. Let’s do this.”Commercial Real Estate Header Image
