ABOUT THE BREWHOUSE
At The Brewhouse, we’ve taken the idea of a simple stay and turned it into a historic, memorable and
genuine Milwaukee experience. Modern comforts. Artful décor. Unparalleled service. Thoughtful green
initiatives. These aren’t extras, but simply the way we run things. All-in-all, The Brewhouse is a collection
of everything that makes Milwaukee famous—including the brew. After all, what could be more Milwaukee
than sleeping in a historic brewery where you’re welcomed by the stained glass visage of the patron saint
of beer brewing? Prost!!
The Brewery
Take an abandoned Milwaukee icon, mix it with a philanthropist who adored the city he grew up in and
you have Joseph Zilber’s monumental redevelopment of the former Pabst Brewing Company. Located
immediately east of I-43, The Brewery has become Milwaukee’s newest sustainable, historic
neighborhood.
After operating for over 150 years the Pabst Brewery closed in 1996 leaving a seven block area of
downtown Milwaukee vacant. For over a decade historic structures deteriorated until real estate
developer and philanthropist Joseph J. Zilber purchased the complex in August 2006.
This historic complex covers over 20 acres and six and one-half city blocks. It contains over a dozen
historic buildings ranging from a 6,000 s.f. German Methodist church (1872) to the 250,000 square foot
historic Bottling Building (1900). As the historic northwest gateway to downtown Milwaukee, Mr. Zilber’s
vision for this site was to redevelop this complex into downtown Milwaukee’s next great neighborhood
built around the themes of historic preservation and sustainability. Mr. Zilber created Brewery Project LLC
and its affiliates to serve as the development’s master developer, selling the shells of historic buildings
and land sites to third party developers. By the end of 2006, Brewery Project LLC had entered into the
largest public-private partnership in the City of Milwaukee’s history and rezoned the property from
manufacturing to mixed use. Beginning in January 2007 massive site preparation work was underway
which would prepare this area for significant development.

Although Mr. Zilber passed away in 2010 at the age of 92, his leadership can be seen in the Brewery’s
unprecedented commitment to sustainability. This is best reflected in The Brewery’s 170 page
Sustainability Guidelines and its designation as a LEED Platinum Neighborhood Development.
