The Sherman Park Community is a multi-cultural potpourri located in the heart of
Metropolitan Milwaukee’s landscape. It is a unique neighborhood offering many
distinct advantages.
Essential to the lifestyle of any community are quality schools and places for
residents to worship. Both entities are readily available to Sherman Park
residents. Public, private and specialty schools abound and there are
numerous churches, synagogues and temples to fulfill the needs of all
denominations. Additionally, within a short distance, there is an
abundance of junior colleges and universities.
Specialty and ethnic shops as well as neighborhood stores and services can be
found throughout Sherman Park. They include everything from animal care to
supermarkets, from home renovation stores to a major mall. Just about anything
and everything can be found somewhere in Sherman Park.
Sherman Park's neighborhoods are clean and attractive. The various styles
of architecture within the community provide a visually appealing
"garden" environment. Because Sherman Park is located in an urban
community, homes are of high quality and available at very affordable prices.
A fine public transportation network and the nearby freeway system make the
entire city and its suburbs accessible to all of Sherman Park’s 43,700
residents.
Four parks are located in Sherman Park or within short walking distance of the
community. Sherman Park residents can enjoy such activities as biking,
golfing, swimming, and tennis. During the summer months, picnics and
listening to music or live theater under the stars are additional
attractions. Just minutes away, residents can visit other recreational and
cultural outlets such as the Performing Arts Center, Milwaukee Art Museum,
Milwaukee Public Museum, The Bradley Sports Center, The Pabst Theater, MECCA
Convention Center, Milwaukee County Baseball Stadium and the nationally
acclaimed Milwaukee County Zoological Park.
In addition to the many area medical, dental, vision and hearing facilities,
Sherman Park is fortunate to have two fine hospitals within the community. The
112-year-old St. Joseph’s Hospital is one of the city’s most acclaimed
health care facilities and treats as well as employs many Sherman Park
residents.
Certainly, the greatest asset of Sherman Park is the proud people that reside
here. People such as United States Senator Herb Kohl and Bud Selig, owner
of Milwaukee Brewers and Commissioner of Baseball, have called Sherman Park
home. They, along with many others, work, live and pray together to create a
homogeneous community with a superior quality of life. As a result, Sherman Park
will enjoy as bright a future as it has an illustrious past. |
