Glen Port pairs suburban living with shopping and freeway access
Homes in Glen Port tend to sit back from Glendale’s busy commercial streets. Tucked behind Interstate 43 and the Bayshore outdoor mall, the neighborhood also sits next to the Lincoln Park Golf Course, the Milwaukee River and the upscale village of Whitefish Bay. “You’re right next to Whitefish Bay, so it’s desirable to a lot of people,” says Pete Gohsman, Realtor with the Gohsman Group of Keller Williams Milwaukee North Shore, who lives in Glendale. “It’s a little separate from the rest of Glendale, because you’re east of the freeway. It’s a nice area.” Several highly rated schools also draw residents to the neighborhood.

Milwaukee's Original Oktoberfest among Glendale community events

It’s like an old-style beer hall with the long public tables. You sit with strangers and get to know them.” The city of Glendale puts on plenty of community events for residents, highlighted by the annual Fourth of July Celebration. The event has live music, a parade and a fireworks display at Kletzsch Park. Bayshore hosts markets for local artists as well as family movie nights.
