Re-Locating From NYC to MKE we know what makes an apartment  a  great Home. Walk-able City Lifestyle. Floor to ceiling windows, a terrace, plenty of natural light and Good Management. The team here is always active, cleaning, shoveling snow, helping us keep our appliances working, they even power washed the garage! Whaat? We have been here just over a year and consider Jackson Square to be a gem in the Third Ward. Where else can you build a snowman on your terrace just outside your apartment window.
