Geocache Description:

Welcome to Catalano Square in Milwaukee’s Historic Third Ward, also called Milwaukee’s “Soho” neighborhood.

A few blocks to the EAST is the Henry Maier Festival Park, the home of Summerfest, the World’s Largest Music Festival, and Milwaukee’s famous ethnic festivals including German Fest, Festa Italiana, Irish Fest, Indian Summer and Polish Fest. To the WEST is the campus of the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design and to the SOUTH you’ll see lovely riverfront apartments and condos. To the NORTH is Broadway Street where you’ll find the Broadway Theatre Center, home of the Skylight Music Theatre.

TO FIND YOUR CACHE, have a SEAT in the historic 1920’s bus shelter.
