Counting Chickens Before They Hatch (or Floors Before You Climb): How Tall is the U.S. Bank Building in Milwaukee?
Let's face it, Milwaukee isn't exactly known for its sprawling skyscrapers. Sure, it's a great city with a killer beer scene and a deep-dish pizza that'll knock your socks off (metaphorically, because who deep-dish pizzas in socks?), but the skyline hasn't exactly been vying for the title of "World's Most Vertically Gifted."
Enter the U.S. Bank Building: The King of the Cheese Curd Castle!
This architectural titan stands tall and proud, the undisputed ruler of the Milwaukee roost. But just how tall are we talking? Enough to snag a nosebleed if you're not careful? Enough to high-five a passing cloud?
The suspense is killing you, isn't it?

Well, fret no more, dear reader! The answer, my friend, is...
42 Floors! (That's right, 42! Not 41, not 43. 42, the number of meaning...well, whatever your heart desires it to mean.)
That's a whopping 601 feet of pure, unadulterated Milwaukee dominance. You could stack 140 cheese curds head-to-head and still not reach the top (although that sounds like a delicious and potentially dangerous experiment we wouldn't recommend).
QuickTip: Read again with fresh eyes.
So, what does this mean for you, the intrepid explorer of Milwaukee's modest mountain range?
- Bragging rights: You can now casually mention, while nonchalantly adjusting your aviator sunglasses, "Oh yeah, that U.S. Bank Building? I can practically see it from my apartment."
- The ultimate workout: Feeling a little sluggish? Take the stairs! Just remember, with 42 floors, this isn't your average office jog. Pack some snacks and a good book, because this might take a while.
- A new perspective: Ever wondered what Milwaukee looks like bathed in the golden glow of the setting sun? Head up to the top floor (assuming they let you in) and prepare to be amazed (or slightly disappointed, depending on your tolerance for heights).
