Architecture and design firm Eppstein Uhen Architects (EUA), which is based in Wisconsin’s largest city, has completed an adaptive reuse project in Milwaukee’s Historic Third Ward. The old building, which was built in 1847, has been converted by EUA to be a clinical location called the Ascension Medical Group–Historic Third Ward Clinic Project.
The 11,000-square-foot clinic is located at 176-184 N. Broadway. Ascension has since transferred their operations to the Historic Third Ward location from its previous downtown location. The new site is more centrally located within Milwaukee’s urban environment and is more accessible to foot traffic and public transportation. Despite being in a building first built in the 19th century, the new clinic will offer state-of-the-art medical facilities to its patients. Services offered will include women’s health, labs, X-ray and ultrasound facilities, and other amenities.
In an informational brief provided to HCO News, designers at EUA said that the adaptive reuse and renovation “revitalized” the former home of the Milwaukee Fire Department’s Engine Company No. 10.
