Alumni Partnership Center
1120 N. Broadway
Alumni Gathering Place
One of MSOE's greatest achievements is its alumni. An alumni
center in a historic building reinforces the message that MSOE alumni are held in the highest regard. This Milwaukee landmark is a focal point for a wide variety of alumni-related activities and the place where visiting alumni gather to participate in the camaraderie always
present at MSOE. The Development and Alumni Affairs Office is located here.
In addition to alumni, it also is
available to student organizations, faculty and staff, industrial advisory
groups, MSOE Regents and Corporation members and professional organizations for
university related activities. For more information regarding the
reservation and usage policy of this beautiful facility, please contact the
Development and Alumni Affairs Office at (414) 277-7151.
History Laden Past
This historic building was added to the MSOE campus in 1989.
It was originally built in 1890 by Emil and Valentin Blatz as the headquarters
for the Blatz Brewing Co. business offices. In the 1980s it was refurbished as
the Beer Baron Restaurant, which operated for five years. This architectural
masterpiece is recognized as a historical treasure by the National Register of
Historic Places. Great care has been taken to preserve the unique features of
this building, which include hand carved fireplace mantels, hardwood floors and
oak beams.
