At Prospect House you’re located on Milwaukee’s East Side, surrounded by hidden gems. Start your day with brunch at nearby Café Hollander. Homemade peanut butter on toast will give you all of the energy you need for a day exploring the historic Downer Avenue. Browse for hidden titles at the Boswell Book Company, stop for sausage-loaded thin crusts at Pizza Man then finish up with an intimate concert from an up-and-coming band at Miramar Theatre. At the weekend, walk over to Lake Park to explore wooded trails, look out of beautiful vistas and pass picture-perfect stops at the North Point Lighthouse.

At Prospect House, you’re a 13-minute walk from the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee or three minutes away by car. After class, walk or drive home, and use the garage parking on-site to store your car safely overnight. For weekend trips you’re a seven-minute walk to the nearest bus stop, so you can visit scenic spots like the Mitchell Park Horticultural Conservatory. There, you can explore tropical jungles during the afternoon, and enjoy the center’s fascinating light shows in the evening.

You’ll love coming home from class and jumping in your bathroom for a hot shower. Pack your bags away in the closet and make the most of the space to invite neighbors over for dinner, or spread your notes out for a cramming session. With an on-site laundry room you won’t need to go far to freshen up your favorite outfits. Enjoy the company of a friend in a shared apartment, or live alone and enjoy meeting up with neighbors for lakeside walks. With only 36 apartments in the building, it won’t be long before you’re seeing familiar faces.

Cook up a feast in the cozy kitchen, then store leftovers in the refrigerator for a tasty late night-snack. Regardless of how late you stay out, the security of a locked lobby and intercom opening system will help you feel safe on your return, and the heating included in your rent will keep you warm. For any problems, you can speak to your on-site management team or take advantage of the 24-hour emergency support.
