Presently, the building is home to a Chase Bank branch and underground vault, the studios of Milwaukee Public Radio (WUWM), a few eateries, and numerous offices. Skywalks connect it to its parking structure to the south and the Shops of Grand Avenue across the river via the ASQ Center.

History

The building was completed in 1961, and was formerly known as Bank One Plaza until their merger with Chase. Before that, it was home to Marine Bank and was known as the Marine Plaza. In 2016, the building was sold to 111 E. Wisconsin Property Owner, LLC, and is managed by Farbman Group.

Currently it is the 11th tallest building in Milwaukee. It was the second tallest building in Milwaukee from 1961 to 1973, when U.S. Bank Center was completed.
