"It would then give them the information they need if they wanted to get a business going with what they created." Residential Development e revival of the site also includes residential developments with German-inspired architecture. ese townhouse-style homes will satisfy the need of small multi-family housing. Within the first phase of the proposed development, 16 units will go up along Jefferson Street. According to the master plan, the residential apartments will offer an opportunity to create a mixed-use project with residential units over commercial space. Twenty-four apartments will be housed in three separate buildings. Business clusters e current plan, which is expected to have many changes as it gets going, will serve a business cluster concept. ese industry clusters are a group of smaller businesses that share common markets, suppliers, technologies and employee skills. A guiding principal to the plan will be to identify and recruit business clusters in the cra beer and wine industry that will fit within the space. "With the area's agricultural resources and emerging business clusters, the whole goal is to become a cra beer industry destination, and that's what this plan is primarily focused on," Weir says. Even though a thorough market study has not officially been conducted yet, Weir suggests there will be new job opportunities for the area once businesses become established within the site. Geography New Holstein is a community proud of its German heritage, Torzala says. "ere's a lot of community pride in New Holstein and a lot of pride with their German heritage," Torzala says. "German is actually the second language for the area." Aer a community brainstorming session on ideas pertaining to the long-term development, the ideas that were brought up the most were to create brew pubs, jobs, restaurants, a town square/gathering place and more downtown businesses. Although the community and some surrounding businesses may be excited to move forward with the proposed plan, Weir says this is not something that can be built overnight. "You have to realize, this is going to be a very slow process which requires approval from all different levels," Weir says. "Patience right now is key, to ensure we are taking appropriate measures to drive the area toward better opportunities."
