It contains much of Downtown Milwaukee, including Milwaukee City Hall, along with the Historic Third Ward, University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee campus, the Milwaukee Art Museum (Quadracci Pavilion), the Port of Milwaukee, and the Henry Maier Festival Park, site of Milwaukee's annual Summerfest.[2] The district has been represented by Ryan Clancy of the Democratic Party since January 2023.[3]
