Listed by Nancy Meeks• Keller Williams Milwaukee North Shore
Long View, located between North Avenue and Capitol Drive, is a residential and hillside Milwaukee neighborhood with bluff-top streets and wide city views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around N 60th St and W North Ave, where corner taverns, carryout counters, and small storefronts set a steady, everyday rhythm. Housing leans toward early-20th-century bungalows and duplexes, with mature trees and compact blocks that keep errands on foot. Nearby anchors like the Uptown Theater, Coffee Makes You Black, and the Urban Ecology Center at Washington Park add culture and community programming. Washington Park’s lagoons and paths shape the outdoor routine, while the Milwaukee County Transit System’s frequent routes along North Avenue connect the area to the rest of the city.

RS5
Single-Family Residential District
The purpose of the RS5 districts is to promote, preserve and protect neighborhoods intended for single-family dwellings and having a character slightly more suburban than the RS6 district. These districts require larger lots, larger setbacks and a smaller lot coverage than the RS6 district. The neighborhoods found in these districts feature a regular platting pattern and a more uniform pattern of development than those of the RS6 district. These neighborhoods were platted and developed, in large part, in the mid- to late-1900s, with some areas recently developed.
