It is believed that the first houses were built here in the early 19th century. Active development of the region followed after that. Solomon Juneau is considered the founder of the city. He established a new trading post here in 1820. The Pabst Building was built in 1891. It has been one of the city's main attractions for 90 years. It was destroyed in 1981. The skyscraper inherited a beautiful crown from a historic building. It crowns its roof today.

Construction of the 100 East Wisconsin building took more than two years. Office space and private apartments are located in it today. Panoramic glazing is the main feature of the interior. It makes it easy to enjoy the view of the central streets of Milwaukee. The spectacular skyscraper is considered one of the main architectural attractions of the city today. It is also one of the most photographed objects on its territory.

Another architectural landmark important for the city is located near it. This is the Northwestern Mutual Tower. It is slightly higher than the main competitor. But it is significantly inferior to it in its design characteristics. The best specialists of Clark Tribble Harris & Li Company worked on the construction of a skyscraper. They borrowed a lot of architectural solutions from the previous building when drawing up the project. Therefore, the skyscraper of 100 East Wisconsin is very similar to a historic building.
