King Drive has a rich history that reflects the shifting demographic and economic composition of Milwaukee.
The City of Milwaukee and the Historic King Drive Business Improvement District (BID) aim to attract investment to the area, including capitalizing on a potential streetcar extension, while balancing the preservation of commercial and residential affordability as well as neighborhood character.

Five Points Charette Neighborhood Report
Historic King Drive BID 8, Riverworks BID, and Bader Philanthropies and the City of Milwaukee worked with University of Wisconsin Milwaukee’s Community Design Solutions (CDS) to facilitate a process of information gathering that culminated in a visioning charette for the Five Points Exchange located in the Harambee neighborhood in the City of Milwaukee.
The intent of the charette process is to explore and evaluate development ideas and possibilities. It is not intended to imply that the ideas are guaranteed by developers or the municipalities.
