Tom Barrett Life Quotations

The redevelopment of this historic campus presents a rare opportunity for Milwaukee, ... We can restore, reuse and breathe new life into the historic buildings and at the same time attract high-quality jobs through development that fosters collaboration with the VA hospital and area universities and colleges.

The University Research Park folks are very aggressive and that's what's needed, and that's what I want here, ... Am I going to be fighting for Milwaukee? You bet your life I'm going to be fighting for Milwaukee. But if it's not here, it's not like I'm going to boycott it.

We basically gave it another 50 years of life before someone else has to redo it.
