Founders 3 to Complete Lease-Up of Mixed-Use Development in Milwaukee

MILWAUKEE — Founders 3 Real Estate Services has been awarded the leasing assignment for Hardware HQ, a mixed-use development in Milwaukee. Purchased in 2015 by WiRED Properties and Phelan Development, the building housed National Ace Hardware for nearly 30 years. Prior to that, it was home to Charles H. Stehling Co. Building ownership has teamed up with Rinka Architects to modernize the building into office space and ground-floor retail. Last year, Milwaukee Motorcycle Co. committed to 14,000 square feet on the first floor for a Harley Davidson location. The showroom space will offer motorcycle and bike sales, merchandise, service and rentals. Ned Purtell, Steve Pape and Jenna Maguire of Founders 3 are marketing the remaining 72,125 square feet for lease.
