Yes, access to the Lake gives Milwaukee a big advantage. But what if Milwaukee was just a hub along the "Freshwater Tech" Corridor. If this could be bigger than just Milwaukee or SE WI. Connecting hubs starting in Northern Indiana, up through Chicago, Kenosha, Racine, Milwaukee, Port Washington, Sheboygan, Green Bay. That could be a more robust plan for 2050.
Excellent interview, Steve. I'm reminded of the original Milwaukee7 commissioned study (way back in 2007) called Milwaukee7 Economic Asset & Opportunity Analysis. Among the suggested focus areas was Embrace the Lake: By working toward the role of U.S. Steward to the Great Lakes, we can become the focal point for freshwater research, technology and tourism. We seldom hear about this critical 'unfair advantage', yet it's right in front of us.

Agreed.
