The Edison (skyscraper)

The Edison is an ambitious 32-story residential high-rise in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, set to become the tallest mass timber building in the United States upon completion. With 378 luxury apartment units and 7,000 square feet of retail space, it aims to enhance the urban landscape at 1005 North Edison Street. Originally proposed in 2021, the project has evolved significantly, with groundbreaking planned for early 2025. Designed using innovative cross-laminated timber, the building will feature public plazas and ample parking, although construction faced delays due to cost issues. This landmark project represents a blend of modern architecture and sustainable building practices, making it a point of interest for tourists and researchers alike.
