Welcome to the neighborhood

About Us

The Brady Street Area Association (BSAA) was formed in 1988. It is comprised of area neighbors and merchants who were interested in the development of this unique street.  The group is dedicated to sustaining the Brady Street Area neighborhood for the local residents and businesses.

The Brady Street Area Association board meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each month, 6:30 pm at 1224 (LR) E. Brady St. All are welcome.

The Brady Street BID

The Brady Street Area Association (BSAA) works closely with the Brady Street Business Improvement District (BID#11) which branched out of the BSAA in the early 1990s. The BID's first project included new lighting to promote safety in the neighborhood, along with beautification efforts such as benches, new street signs, garbage cans, and bike racks. It was around this time that Brady Street also became a historical district.

Other projects included the building of the marsupial bridge, a walking bridge that connects Brady St. with Commerce St. on the opposite side of the Milwaukee River underneath the Holton St. viaduct; and the Green Flow project displaying pictographs in our concrete between the road and the sidewalk. Today, the BID, representing all of the businesses on Brady Street, and BSAA work together to support the Brady Street area and its continued growth.
