Former Younkers store in Sturgeon Bay could get DCEDC as new tenant
The former Younkers Home Store building on North Fourth Street in downtown Sturgeon Bay is on track to get a primary tenant, with the Door County Economic Development Corp. working on an agreement with the county, which owns the building, to move there. The plan, approved by the Door County Board in its Sept. 24 meeting, would solve issues on both sides of the agreement. The county has owned the building since March 2019, after the Younkers department store chain went out of business and closed its two Sturgeon Bay locations the year before. But talks and studies over the years to redevelop it for a combination of retail space and storage and archive space for the Door County Museum didn't come to fruition until the end of 2025, when the County Board approved a plan to renovate the building, with the back intended for storage and work space for the museum, located in the same block as the building, and the front for commercial use. The board in its July 28 meeting approved $3.3 million in contracts to renovate the Younkers building and improve ADA access to the museum. "When we looked at the building, one of the options

Green Bay home builder moving to Allouez Avenue in Bellevue | Streetwise
Reader question: What at are they building on Allouez Avenue next to ReStore? Answer: Detrie Builders Inc. is constructing a building at 1929 Allouez Ave., in Bellevue, next to the Greater Green Bay Habitat for Humanity ReStore at 1967 Allouez Ave. Detrie Builders is a family-owned custom home builder for 71 years, with headquarters at 701 Pine St., Green Bay. The company purchased the 6.2-acre site in October 2024 for $864,407. The proposed building is 8,640 square feet. Charlie Gehrke, office administrator, confirmed that the building will become the headquarters for the business. He doesn't know what will happen with the building in Green Bay, but said it may eventually be sold. "It's going to be after the first of the year before we probably officially move in," Gehrke said. He said the company chose this new location in Bellevue due to its proximity to State 172. "Also, even though we have projects all over the Green Bay metro area, we have many in Ledgeview as well," Gehrke said. Andrew Vissers, director of economic development for Bellevue, said the building structure will feature office space and a garage shop. Ariel Perez is a business reporter for the Green Bay Press-Gazette.

In 2001, excessive costs made developers to scrap plan for Menasha mansion
The Sensenbrenner mansion in Menasha was a historic home, but was never listed on the state or national historic registers and, in 2001, developers eventually won the fight to raze it. The home at 995 Brighton Drive in Menasha, was built around 1929 in the English Tudor Revival style by local industrialist John Sensenbrenner on the site where the Brighton Beach summer hotel once stood. It was then known as Sand Acres. The home was sold in 1948 to the Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth, according to an article printed in the June 4, 1948 edition of The Post-Crescent. The building and the 40 acres it sat on was used as a rest house and retreat by the Sisters. In 1978, the retreat was sold to John Bergstrom, who used it as his personal residence. According to a July 18, 1978 Post-Crescent article, he said the property would remain largely unchanged, stating, “I like it, very much, the way it is.” By the time Brighton Beach Development LLC purchased the parcel for redevelopment in 2000, it was owned by Appleton chiropractor James Rouse. Neenah architect Stephen Gries partnered with Dan Schott of Menasha to develop the property. Their
