River Trail Commons

River Trail Commons, a Mixed Income Community of Neighbors, is being built in Milwaukee's vibrant, walkable and event-filled Riverwest neighborhood not far from Lake Michigan and Downtown. Located on Gordon Park, adjacent to playfields, playgrounds and picnic areas, on the kayakable Milwaukee River, and on the forest and its hiking and biking trails, RTC enables members to easily navigate the city with access to 4 bus lines and the walkable neighborhood with many restaurants, groceries, and entertainment locals. A walk through the forest trail to North Avenue accesses movie screens, a bowling alley, and a legion of restaurants and bars. Forty condominium homes and 21 deeded underground parking spaces are on the periphery of the Community Garden. Multigenerational, RTC has 1- 4-bedroom private homes and an extensive Common House overlooking the park, forest, and river for dining and rooftop events.
Because Milwaukee holds the distinction of being #1 in the country for the size of its racial gap in home equity family wealth largely resulting from racial deed-restrictions and illegal red-lining, some homes will be significantly discounted for First Generation Milwaukee-born buyers. Those homes will be deed-restricted to be perpetually more affordable for First Generation buyers.
