WCREW Impact Award
We are proud to share that the Baird Center Expansion has been recognized with the WCREW Impact Award for Project of the Year, an incredible honor that reflects the vision, collaboration and hard work that brought this transformational project to life.
This recognition is about far more than a building. The expanded Baird Center represents what’s possible when talented people come together around a shared goal: creating a world-class destination that elevates Milwaukee, drives economic impact and strengthens our community for generations to come. Every department, every partnership and every individual contribution played a role in making this achievement possible.
We are especially grateful for the outstanding collaboration from our construction and design partners, including Gilbane Building Company and Eppstein Uhen Architects. Their creativity, expertise and commitment to excellence helped shape a facility that is already making a powerful impression on visitors from around the world.
Most importantly, this award celebrates the momentum we are creating together. With events filling the calendar, guests experiencing Milwaukee and economic activity extending throughout the region, the impact of this project is already being felt far beyond our walls. While this award recognizes a milestone moment, the story of the Baird Center is just beginning, and we could not be more excited for what comes next.
