750 Car Capacity.ty.

2001- "Built in 1961, this six-story parking garage is sheathed with metal mesh and has a 750-car capacity. Wisconsin Architecture & History Inventory records indicate this structure was locally designated on November 1 7, 1987. But a representative from the City of Milwaukee Preservation Office states that this structure is not listed. Rather, the East Side Commercial Historic District, which borders but does not include this structure, was locally designated on November 17, 1987. It appears that the Wisconsin Architecture & History Inventory records inadvertently include this property in that designation."
