In the two years since it opened, the seven-story, 98,000-square-foot Global Water Center has become 99 percent occupied, said Meghan Jensen, director of marketing and membership for The Water Council, which operates the Global Water Center. In fact, 45 water-related organizations are currently located in the building in Milwaukee’s Walker’s Point neighborhood.
All that is left in the former warehouse building at 247 W. Freshwater Way is about 1,500 square feet of unbuilt space on the fourth floor and two available offices on the fifth floor, according to Dean Amhaus, president and chief executive officer of the Milwaukee-based Water Council.
