Milwaukee Scavenger
They say: “There’s always good things brewing in Milwaukee!” Indeed there are and you won’t have to hunt too hard to find them. Take a closer look at those places you might have passed by or stop and visit a neighborhood you only know by name. Milwaukee Scavenger invites you to discover the city with new eyes. The thrill of the hunt is a hard feeling to encapsulate, but the satisfaction of solving a riddle and possibly seeing something great is a handsome reward. Explore each neighborhood starting in Shorewood, then south to Bay View and west to Wauwatosa. Older neighborhoods might contain clues too, like Lincoln Village, Avenues West, or Sherman Park. Exploring by foot or bike might help you get the best vantage point, but be sure to check out the chapter on Milwaukee’s streetcar, The Hop. Each chapter is designed to help you discover or rediscover historic landmarks, natural wonders, dazzling works of art, and new hot spots in the city. See how fast you can guess all the clues in your own neighborhood and beyond!
Milwaukee native, Jenna Kashou always enjoys exploring and writing about the people and places she encounters in MKE; her scavenger hunt will challenge visitors and locals alike to explore the city one neighborhood at a time.
