At Saint Kate, you can see a performance in the 90-seat Arc Theatre, take in a free gallery exhibition just o� the lobby at MOWA | DTN (a downtown extension of the Museum of Wisconsin Art), or even sleep in the middle of a work of art in one of ﬁve specialty rooms designed from start to ﬁnish by local artists.

Located directly outside the station doors is the start and end station for Milwaukee’s streetcar, The Hop, which loops through downtown. There is also a Bublr Bike bikeshare station right outside.

BY WATE R PORT MILWAUKEE Milwaukee’s port on the coast of Lake Michigan is your port of call whether you’re coming by ferry or by cruise ship. The Lake Express Ferry is a state-of-theart auto/passenger ferry linking Milwaukee with Muskegon, Michigan. The two and a half hour trip offers passengers a faster and more direct route than driving south around Lake Michigan through the Chicago area. Milwaukee is also happy to welcome Great Lakes Lake Express Ferry

cruises at two passenger docks, Pier Wisconsin and the South Shore Cruise Dock. VISITMILWAUKEE.ORG | 75

Bark Break ➞ Don’t leave your best friend at home when you travel! There’s no reason man’s best friend can’t also be man’s best travel companion when you visit a dog-friendly city like Milwaukee. The Iron Horse Hotel (500 W. Florida St.), the Kimpton Journeyman Hotel (310 E. Chicago St.), and Hilton Milwaukee City Center (509 W. Wisconsin Ave.) roll out the red carpet for four-legged guests. Check the resources section for more pet-friendly properties (pg. 46). Your pet can join you on the patios of many popular restaurants, and even join you inside the taproom at Black Husky Brewing (909 E. Locust St.), where you'll find plenty of gear made with pups in mind. Well-behaved dogs are welcome on Milwaukee Boat Line tours and inside Milwaukee Kayak Company kayaks and canoes. Enjoy leashed walks along over 100 miles of trails through Milwaukee County Parks, or visit off-leash parks like the 26-acre Runway Dog Park (1214 E. Rawson Ave., Oak Creek) featuring a covered pavilion, agility equipment, and a separate fenced-in area for small dogs.
