Pieper plots Milwaukee redevelopments

The building has been vacant since Everitt Knitting went out of business in early 2004. Everitt Knitting, founded in 1910, made hats, scarves, mittens, blankets and other items. Pieper is serving as the developer for the $6.6 million renovation of the building's shell and core, which is under way. Part of the building is six stories tall and part of it is seven stories tall. Tenants will be able to move into the building next year.
