Vogue magazine named Milwaukee, Wisconsin as a place that is “Making America’s Rust Belt Shine Again.”
Recently, Milwaukee has seen a resurgence of the industrial giant that it used to be. In late September, it was announced the train manufacturer Talgo Inc. will return to Milwaukee’s Century City development to build trains for the Los Angeles Metropolitan Transit Authority.
