Milwaukee-area home tours for 2024 showcase functional design

"Everything old is new again" is an adage that suggests the wisdom of the past often can inspire new ideas. Touring remodeled and historic homes may supply creative solutions for your current home or home-building dream. Local organizations and trade groups have scheduled events to assist you in finding homes to tour. Here is a roundup of home tours in Milwaukee and the surrounding communities this year.

Historic Milwaukee Spaces & Traces 2024

Historic Milwaukee Inc. presents its 42nd annual Spaces & Traces tour from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. May 4, featuring mid-century modern homes in the metro Milwaukee area. The tour offers a look into restored and renovated homes designed by architects using a functional approach to design, characterized by a low profile and natural materials.

Julia Griffith, program director for Historic Milwaukee, noted this is a departure from past tours: "While we typically feature a particular neighborhood, 2024 marks the 50th anniversary of Historic Milwaukee as an organization. We were founded in 1974, when the mid-century modern style was popular, and we are thrilled to highlight these unique properties for our event."

The tour will feature single-family homes designed by John Randal McDonald, Joseph Godkin, Willis and Lillian Leenhouts and others, including a few local students of Frank Lloyd Wright. Many properties include original details like built-ins, stacked stone fireplaces and planters, old-growth mahogany paneling, cork floors and bathroom fixtures and tiles. Alterations have been done with sensitivity to the design and finishes, enhancing the vision of the architect but making these homes more comfortable for modern family life. The guided tour includes access to eight properties and a brochure with maps. The tour is recommended for ages 12 and up. Tickets are $30 for members, $40 for non-members, and can be purchased online at historicmilwaukee.org .

If you enjoy greeting visitors and fellow home enthusiasts, consider volunteering for the event. Historic Milwaukee is seeking volunteers to help lead tours of featured properties, check tickets and answer questions. Each property is staffed throughout the day and volunteers share more about the history and inhabitants with tour attendees. Shifts are three hours long and training is provided. As a benefit, volunteers may purchase a ticket for $15 to attend the event. To volunteer, sign up at the event page website.

NARI 2024 Tour of Remodeled Homes

This tourwill be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 18 and 19. It showcases 10 projects that range in budget from $100,000 to $600,000 and are located from Lake Michigan to Lake Country. New this year, the tour will showcase a “resort-style” backyard with a 20-foot by 40-foot in-ground pool, outdoor kitchen, fire pit, paver staircase and patio. The homes featured highlight kitchen remodels and additions, “whole home” remodels, and first-floor remodels. The tour allows visitors to explore how kitchens can be expanded to provide additional seating and a walk-in pantry, or how sunrooms and basements can be transformed into play spaces and entertainment areas. See updated mudrooms, garages, and luxury master baths, with opportunities to talk with designers and view before-and-after images of the remodeling projects. Tickets are $20 and can only be purchased online at naritourhomes.com .

2024 Texas Open live stream, watch online, TV schedule, channel, tee times, golf coverage, radio

The pga tour stays in texas this week for one last tune up before the masters.

Just four rounds stand between players and the first major championship of the season. The 2024 Texas Open will serve as the final tune up for some of the world's best as they search for form ahead of the Masters. While many of the top names in the field have already booked their trips to Augusta National, the Texas Open will grant one final spot in the field should a winner without an invitation emerge.

Not needing to worry about this is world No. 2 Rory McIlroy, who has experienced a somewhat tumultuous season up to this point. A bit more erratic with his long game than what we are used to, McIlroy is without a top-10 finish on the PGA Tour and has struggled to string four rounds together. McIlroy hopes to find whatever this missing link may be at TPC San Antonio, where he last played in 2022. McIlroy missed the cut that week, but it served as a good preparation; he finished runner-up at the Masters a week later. 

Also factoring in Masters past are champions such as Jordan Spieth and Hideki Matsuyama, who are heading in opposite directions in terms of form. Matsuyama, a winner at the Genesis Invitational, looks much like the man who donned the green jacket in 2021. Spieth, meanwhile, has struggled with consistency. Fresh off back-to-back missed cuts at the Players Championship and Valspar Championship, Spieth is in need of some strong play leading into the Masters. 

Collin Morikawa finds himself in a similar position with cold iron play, while players such as Max Homa, Matt FItzpatrick Ludvig Aberg, Tommy Fleetwood and Brian Harman appear keen on entering the winner's circle.

Phil Mickelson: Golf in “disruption phase;” LIV Golf will force PGA Tour to go global

Ahead of LIV Golf’s event in Miami this week, Phil Mickelson touched on the current state of affairs in professional golf.

Share All sharing options for: Phil Mickelson: Golf in “disruption phase;” LIV Golf will force PGA Tour to go global

Earlier this year, PGA Tour star Rory McIlroy called for a unified, global tour. He envisions a circuit where the top 80 players play alongside each other around the world.

McIlroy echoed that sentiment earlier this week, noting that golf’s current state of affairs is unsustainable.

LIV Golf’s Phil Mickelson agreed while adding that golf is currently in a “disruption phase.”

“We are in a transitional state where we now have competition, and that’s leading to a lot of disruption and change, but also, the end product is going to make golf more global where the best players travel more,” Mickelson said ahead of this week’s LIV Golf event at Trump National Doral.

“But right now, we are in the disruption phase, so we are in the middle of the process, and when it’s all said and done, it’s going to be a lot brighter. But while we go through it, it’s challenging. But we’ll get there.”

For the past two years, the rise of LIV Golf has divided professional golf, separating the best players in the world on competing circuits. This divide came to an apex when the Saudi-backed circuit paid Jon Rahm north of $400 million in December to join LIV.

“I think I agree with that statement. Every time I get asked a question like this, I say the same thing,” Rahm added, sitting alongside Mickelson.

“I think there’s room for both. It’s as simple as that. I think we have the opportunity to end up with an even better product for the spectators and fans of the game. A little bit more variety doesn’t really hurt anybody. Properly done, we can end up with a much better product that can take golf to the next level worldwide, and I’m hoping that’s what ends up happening.”

How professional golf will look in the future remains to be seen.

So many variables needed to be sorted out, such as LIV golfers returning to the PGA Tour, player equity for tour players , and the shape of a new global schedule, among other things.

It also seems as if we are still far away from this reality.

Only three weeks ago, PGA Tour policy board members met with Yasir al-Rumayyan, the governor of the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) —LIV Golf’s beneficiary—in the Bahamas for an “introductory” meeting. Reports indicate that this gathering was an “ice breaker” of sorts, as substantial negotiations about the future of professional golf were not had.

Still, Mickelson trusts al-Rumayyan to navigate these choppy waters safely to shore.

“I don’t know how it’s going to end out, exactly, or what it’s going to look like,” Mickelson said.

“I’m putting my trust in [al-Rumayyan] and where the game is headed globally. But at some point, when it gets ironed out, I think it’s going to be in a much better place where we bring the best players from the world. It’s going to open up more opportunities for manufacturing, course design, and for players in different parts of the world to be inspired and enter the game.”
