Building Description
Built in 1980 by renowned architect John Portman, the hotel stands on the storied site of the former Gilpatrick Hotel, where President Theodore Roosevelt survived an assassination attempt in 1912, and St. Mark African Methodist Episcopal Church, the first African American church built in Wisconsin. Today, the property continues to impress as a centerpiece in Milwaukee’s convention and events scene.
Perched atop the hotel on the 21st floor, explore Vue – originally a rotating restaurant called Polaris – now a stunning event venue with 360-degree windows that frame the Milwaukee skyline.
