Construction Starts on Deer District Concert Venue
Construction is underway on a long-awaited and once-controversial concert venue.
Without great fanfare, FPC Live has fired up a pile driver on the site of the former Bradley Center. Many of the pilings to support the 4,500-person venue are expected to be in the ground before the Republican National Convention begins on July 15.
Madison-based Frank Productions has publicly sought to develop the venue since 2021. In 2022, the site was shifted from a Historic Third Ward site near Henry Maier Festival Park to the vacant lot immediately south of Fiserv Forum.
As a result of its location directly adjacent to the political convention’s premier venue, workers from Miron Construction are expected to idle for two weeks around the convention. The western portion of the site is being paved with asphalt for a temporary parking lot for production vehicles.
