There are multiple transit options in our neighborhood; the east side of Milwaukee is connected to the rest of Wisconsin with many interurban options from buses to bike paths, like the Oak Leaf Trail for biking and walking, as well as lake front freeway access just south of the Calatrava designed Art Museum.

Along with the City of Milwaukee recycling programs, our own and the university’s neighborhood clean-up efforts keep the quality of life at a high level, and of course a very active neighborhood association with the largest membership of any neighborhood association in the city, that includes a regular newsletter and our web site to keep neighbors informed and involved. There is a coordinated effort among all east side neighborhood associations to address mutual concerns to all of the residents through the Milwaukee Eastside Neighborhood Associations (or MENA). Murray Hill is a great place to live, work, play and study and our Murray Hill Neighborhood Association is a neighborly way to get involved.
