Great part of the government, and a beautiful place in Milwaukee. This place is also extremely…read moresupportive!

This is an amazing piece of architecture stuck down on the far back end of St. Francis right on the…read morelake. Heavily secured but majestically eye appealing. A modern architected government facility that is graced by the serene and surreal backdrop of Lake Michigan. This office/ headquarters seems to jump out of nowhere and it's presence is immediate. I am reviewing this on pure architecture value alone and was awed by the sprawling lakeside campus that seems to be almost in the middle of nowhere and nowhere. If you get down on the longer lengths of the Oakleaf trail you cannot miss this structure.

If you travel frequently, you know that Global Entry (along with its domestic cousin TSA Precheck)…read moreis indispensable. For $100 you get 5 years of expedited access - no taking off shoes, no pulling liquid or laptops - a bargain and even better because my credit card pays the fee. Anyway, my GE expired in 2020 so I started my renewal in March and then Corona hit. You have to do a short in person interview and there was nothing, literally nothing available for the rest of the year. I checked back after Jan 1st and to my delight, there was availability! So I headed over to a boring office building near the airport (next to Denny's) and was taken care of by a super nice border agent. The whole thing took maybe 10 minutes and as a bonus I don't look like a crackhead on my ID card. Looking forward to LOTS of travel when it's safe again!

Not bad for a government agency. Quicker and more pleasant than the post office or DMV!…read moreAppointments are required. Me and the Mrs came here to get approved for TSA fast tracking so we can get thru customs quicker when returning back to the USA. You'll need to apply online in advance and make an appointment. Be sure to bring your Passport, our passports were new and we had to sign them in the presence of a US Customs officer. Plan ahead for this. We were lucky to get in days before a trip out of the country. Friends of ours had to go to Madison to get their global entry whatchamacallit.

Since this one sits right on top of the airport, I like to drop off stuff here imagining it gets going faster but I don't actually know that this is the case. They are fast, polite and efficient here, plus you often get free entertainment in the short line wait as colorful crackpots are also frequent visitors.

5 stars for a Post Office?…read more I challenge you to find a better one. This place is open 24 / 7. You can ship every thing here from a bundt cake for your Aunt Emma in Poughkippsee to a set of sweet-ass 22s you sold on EBay to some sucker in Modesto. Need a PO Box so your mom doesn't find out about your magazine subscriptions? They can help you out. Need a passport for that once-in-a-lifetime Carnival Cruise you and the Mrs. have been saving up for for the pas 8 years? Bingo. Postal workers get a bad rap. The employees here have been nothing but kind, professional, and patient. If any one is going postal in here it's going to be me. Especially if you are that guy in front of me who is always shipping 15 different packages and needs to know the price for each one and how long it will take to get there. You get my drift. You can do all that shit online at home. USPS: A poor-man's FedEx. No one really needs that shit from Amazon by 10:30 the next day. Use the postal service. Save some bucks.

Our group likes the mission so much that we have supported them three years in a row and have become one of their top donors in the Milwaukee area. My first NAMI walk was downtown on the lakefront, and this one was in Wauwatosa. Both times, walkers were very well directed by helpers, made aware of the schedule ahead of time, and given goodies the day of. If you're looking for a good cause to support, I'd highly recommend.

I love crossing over Lake Michigan and seeing the Downtown Milwaukee skyline. You have plenty of great views including Lake Michigan, Summerfest, Milwaukee Art Museum and so on.

It's not the bridge's fault, of course. I love this bridge!
