You've now returned to the starting point of our tour (although on the other side of the Wisconsin Avenue Bridge). If you've walked enough for the day, this is a good spot to stop. You're at the dividing line between East Town and Westown, with plenty of options at your disposal. Be sure to use eVisitorGuide Milwaukee to find dining, nightlife, museums, attractions and other fun things to do in the city!

For those with a bit more energy, it's worth the approximate 3 block walk south along the RiverWalk to the Milwaukee Public Market and the Historic Third Ward.

Continue south along the RiverWalk, across Michigan Street, Clybourn Street and underneath the I-794 Freeway. Just past the freeway you'll see Milwaukee's popular year-round indoor market called Milwaukee Public Market.
