Biographical notes:

The Park West Redevelopment Task Force (PWRTF) was a private, non-profit organization created in 1977 to administer the redevleopment of the land cleared for the Park Freeway West, an expressway that would have connected downtown Milwaukee with the northern and western suburbs. The PWRTF was to redevelop the Park West lands for housing, commercial areas, improvement of social services and public facilities. The PWRTF's major focus was to transfer the land from the state and county to the City of Milwaukee, to identify areas for redevelopment, and to find a suitable private developer. The PWRTF ceased operations in November 1982.
