About this file

The document is a conceptual design proposal by KORB for the Midtown Midtown Library, Community, and Election Commission project, scheduled for September 22, 2025. The proposal involves repurposing an existing Walmart location to create a multi-purpose civic complex in Milwaukee, featuring a public library (18,000 sq ft), community space (2,000 sq ft), and Election Commission facilities (33,997 sq ft). The site plan includes a speculative tenant space of approximately 102,880 sq ft, with comprehensive parking arrangements: 78 parking stalls for library patrons, 19 staff parking spaces, and 178 parking spaces for the Election Commission.

The conceptual renderings showcase a modern, integrated design with metal and brick exteriors, landscaped surroundings, and pedestrian-friendly approaches. The facility includes strategic elements like a library terrace, community space terrace, potential café, library garden connector, and designated entry points for each functional area. The site layout maintains existing loading docks and commercial structures while creating a cohesive urban civic space that emphasizes accessibility, with bicycle parking, street-level interaction, and a contemporary architectural aesthetic that blends functionality with community-oriented design.
