Housing Authority of the City of Milwaukee Celebrates Five Years of Historic Old Main's Permanent Housing for Veterans
From the Housing Authority of the City of Milwaukee's newsletter:
Five years after reopening, the historic Old Main building on the Milwaukee VA campus continues to provide stable, permanent housing for Veterans who have experienced homelessness.
Originally constructed in 1867 as one of the nation’s first soldiers’ homes, the landmark building was vacant for decades before undergoing a major renovation. It reopened in March 2021 as part of the Milwaukee Soldiers Home campus, offering 101 housing units across six buildings.
