An older industrial building in Milwaukee s Harbor District and Walker s Point areas has been sold to a developer who s considering its conversion to office space and other new uses.
The three-story, 21,000-square-foot building, at 212 E. Mineral St., was sold for $660,000 to Denmark HD LLC, led by Mark Lathers, according to a new deed filing. It was sold by Chicago-based AM Finance LLC.
Lathers said Wednesday that he initially agreed to buy the empty building in May 2019.
Some legal complications, and then the COVID-19 pandemic, delayed the closing until this week.
The initial plans called for offices, along with a local microbrewery, Lathers told the Journal Sentinel.

One of Jason Buehler s favorite beer styles was black IPA, so when he worked behind the kettles at Oskar Blues several years ago, he and head brewer Juice Drapeau cooked one up called Home Skillet.
The name was a shout-out to rapper Flava Flav, who had used the term often in his Flavor of Love reality show from a few years earlier. We said it around the brewery way more than necessary.and Jason started hanging a clock [Flava s trademark] and a skillet on the fermenter whenever we brewed Home Skillet, Drapeau remembers. He worked his ass off, but never stopped making people laugh.
