    COMPREHENSIVE MARKET ANALYSIS REPORTS Policy Development & Research Analysis of the Milwaukee-Waukesha, Wisconsin Housing Market As of October 1, 2004 ECONOMIC RESEARCH U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Analysis of the Milwaukee-Waukesha, Wisconsin Housing Market as of October 1, 2004 Foreword This analysis has been prepared for the assistance and guidance of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) in its operations. The factual information, findings, and conclusions may be useful also to builders, mortgagees, and others concerned with local housing conditions and trends. The analysis does not purport to make determinations regarding the acceptability of any mortgage insurance proposal that may be under consideration. The factual framework for this analysis follows the guidelines developed by HUD’s Economic and Market Analysis Division. The analysis and findings are as thorough and current as possible based on information available on the “as-of” date from both local and national sources. As such, any findings or conclusions may be modified by subsequent developments. HUD wishes to express its appreciation to those industry sources and state and local government officials who provided data and information on local economic and housing market conditions. This analysis takes into consideration changes in the economic, demographic, and housing inventory characteristics of the market area during three periods: from 1990 to 2000, from 2000 to the October 1, 2004 as-of date of the analysis (Current date), and from the Current date to an October 1, 2007 Forecast date. The analysis presents counts and estimates of employment, population, households, and housing inventory, as of the 1990 Census, 2000 Census, Current date, and Forecast date.

    DETROIT'S MILWAUKEE JUNCTION SURVEY HAER MI-416 Milwaukee Junction HAER MI-416 Detroit Michigan WRITTEN HISTORICAL AND DESCRIPTIVE DATA FIELD RECORDS HISTORIC AMERICAN ENGINEERING RECORD National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior 1849 C Street NW Washington, DC 20240-0001 HISTORIC AMERICAN ENGINEERING RECORD DETROIT’S MILWAUKEE JUNCTION SURVEY HAER MI-416 Location: Milwaukee Junction, Detroit, Michigan The survey boundaries are Woodward Avenue on the west and St. Aubin on the east. The southern boundary is marked by the Grand Trunk Western railroad line, which runs just south of East Baltimore from Woodward past St. Aubin. The northern boundary of the survey starts on the west end at East Grand Boulevard, runs east along the boulevard to Russell, moves north along Russell to Euclid, and extends east along Euclid to St. Aubin. Significance: The area known as Milwaukee Junction, located just north of Detroit’s city center, was a center of commercial and industrial activity for more than a century. Milwaukee Junction served, if not as the birthplace of American automobile manufacturing, then as its nursery. In addition to the Ford Motor Company and General Motors, many early auto manufacturers and their support services (especially body manufacturers like the Fisher Brothers, C.R. Wilson, and Trippensee Auto Body) were also located in the area, probably because of the proximity of the railroads. Historians: Kenneth Shepherd and Richard Sucré, 2003 Project Information: The Historic American Engineering Record conducted a survey of Detroit’s Milwaukee Junction, a center of auto and related industrial production, in summer 2003. The City of Detroit and the city’s Historic Designation Advisory Board sponsored the survey.

The Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago recently initiated a comprehensive, long-term study of the regional economy, Assessing the Midwest Economy: Looking Back for the Future (see page 15). The study is intended to foster a better understanding of the Midwest’s prospects by examin- ing the turnaround in the region’s economy since the early 1980s. On November 28, 1995, the Bank held its first project workshop as part of the year-long study. The workshop focused on the economies of the region’s metropolitan areas. This is the first in a series of reports which will summarize the findings/directions identified at project workshops.
