Location
The Italian Community Center (ICC) is located in the Third Ward neighborhood of Milwaukee, WI. Currently the site contains the building on the north side with surface parking lots running to Polk St. to the south. The site is zoned C9G which allows for a variety of commercial and residential uses. Consideration has been given to the Use Policy defined in the Third Ward Neighborhood Comprehensive Plan including the concept of creating social spaces and restoration of a street grid that incorporates the Italian Village concept.
