Milwaukee #10: Marcus Center for the Performing Arts

929 North Water Street

Originally built in 1969 as the Performing Arts Center, the original skin for the Marcus Center for the Performing Arts deteriorated prematurely and had to be replaced with new limestone in the 1980s. There is also a nice fountain out front.

This building is also significant to me as it is where I graduated from the Milwaukee School of Engineering on May 22, 2004, in what I believe was the last MSOE commencement to be held there.
