With the relatively mild winter, the new arena is taking shape. I thought folks here from out of town would like to see progress.

The first shot is from 6th Street looking north. You can see the Belair Tacos building form taking shape.

This is the parking structure

This is from the east looking west with the Bradley Center to the left. The old parking structure is down where the entertainment plaza is going.

You gonna chuck up some coin and buy the naming rights? "The Tooth" has a nice ring to it.

I am hearing the naming rights will be an out of town entity, if that is to be believed.

The "Creanacious Crean Center"?

Aka. The "Triple C".

milwaukee tool is the official "tool" of the construction site. not sure if they are going to throw their dollars into the ring for naming rights. my son works for them out in raleigh and they just went thru a major software "upgrade" that has really facked up their logistics. they may need to get their house in order first cuz customers , tool reps, the whole supply line is a mess. can't believe they didn't have a plan B in place

I can almost guarantee Milwaukee Tool won't buy the naming rights. They don't really do any advertising for sporting events as far as I know (no ads at Miller Park, no Milwaukee NASCAR car, no ads at the BC, etc...) The arena site is kind of a special circumstance because it's an actual job site using Milwaukee tools.

Heard the same. And have also heard they'll go international with the jersey sponsor.

Reminds me of Crazy Jim's in Hales Corners. We took in a fish fry at Cliffords then hit Crazy Jim's Demo Derby. Milwaukeeana at its very finest.

There were two. We went to the one in Hales Corners. They served Old Style 60 oz pitchers for a $1.50.

Clifford's in Hales Corners is alive and well. Not much has changed since Keefe's last visit.
