A historic 1913 Arts & Crafts gem on Layton Avenue, once owned by a Wisconsin Motor foreman and later a physician who turned a maid’s room into his office, narrowly escaped demolition after a 2002 fire. Saved by a landmarking campaign and community rallying, it was lovingly restored by current owners in historic preservation—complete with a charred staircase as a tribute to its resilience. Now listed at $350K, this survivor blends timeless charm with modern updates, ready for its next chapter.

China in a Wisconsin Senate Race | Milwaukee News
In a surprising twist, China has become the centerpiece of Wisconsin’s razor-thin Senate race, as challenger Jenna Jacobson’s new ad accuses incumbent Howard Marklein of profiting from Chinese investments while voting against American-made goods. Marklein’s campaign calls the ad deceptive and a smear, noting his financial disclosures show past holdings in emerging market funds — many tied to China — though recent filings omit those specifics. Republicans counter that such investments are common, even in state retirement systems, and accuse Jacobson of hypocrisy for previously opposing restrictions on China-related business. Meanwhile, experts say tying candidates to China — a country with negative public sentiment — is a risky but politically potent tactic, especially in a close election where foreign policy is now unexpectedly front and center.

Milwaukee’s about to test a bold new idea: proactive rental inspections in Uptown, where inspectors can show up without a tenant complaint—targeting absentee landlords and hidden hazards before they escalate. The five-year pilot aims to fix serious issues like no running water or unsafe wiring, while sparing owner-occupied homes. Properties that pass get a clean slate for five years; those with violations get a chance to repair—or face annual checks and fees. If approved, this could reshape how Milwaukee keeps neighborhoods safe and livable, one inspection at a time.
