I've been dreaming of living in NYC since I was probably 15.
But you know the saying "Be happy with what you have". And let me tell you, Milwaukee is actually pretty great.
We have:
One of the best Zoos in the country.
One of the largest natural history museums in the country.
Some of the lowest prices on alcohol.
A vibrant arts and music culture.
And this:
A view of the Milwaukee Art Museum, which not only houses many fine pieces of artwork, also ranks high on the list of world's sexiest buildings. The Santiago Calatrava Brise Soliel is famous, and I'm proud to have it right in my city. (This was taken on my walk back from the world's largest music festival, held every year, Summerfest!)
I mean, New York City is great and all...but can they say that is has the largest four-faced clock tower in the western hemisphere? Yes, it is larger than Big Ben, which is the largest chiming four-faced clock tower in the world. Take that, London!
Not to mention plenty of beer, cheese, and sausage to go around.
So I suppose for the time being, Milwaukee is a pretty cool place to call home.
