Common Council
The three-mile stretch of S. 6th St. from W. Howard Ave. south to W. College Ave. was successfully designated the Green Corridor in 2011 by the Common Council as a bold showcase for sustainability, innovation, and beautification. The Green Corridor includes Business Improvement District #40, and the initiative has attracted the active support of the Garden District Neighborhood Association, the Gateway to Milwaukee, the Energy Exchange, several colleges and American Rivers, a national environmental organization partnering with Southeastern Wisconsin Watersheds Trust.
