Greenfire is making strong progress on the construction of the Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Residences at Woodale Crossing, a supportive housing development by Jewish Family Services (JFS) in Brown Deer, WI. Located at the intersection of West Bradley Road and North Teutonia Avenue, the project will bring 56 affordable housing units to the community, specifically designed to support seniors and individuals living with disabilities. The 58,487 SF residence was designed by JLA Architects, with engineering services provided by The Sigma Group.
This new residence will offer independent living with supportive staff available when needed. The building will feature studio, one-, and two-bedroom layouts, with modern amenities including underground parking to reduce surface traffic and noise for nearby residents. Communal spaces, support staff offices, and outdoor patios will provide a welcoming, community-oriented environment for future residents.
Greenfire management team has brought the project into its final interior phases, with the top third floor approaching readiness for punch list walkthroughs and cleanup. Construction crews are moving systematically floor by floor, completing final mechanical, electrical and plumbing installations, inspections, and finishing work as they progress toward project closeout.
As interior work wraps up, Greenfire’s project team is transitioning focus to the exterior infrastructure and landscaping, which will serve as a highlighted amenity for future residents. Sitework will include the addition of retaining walls and a landscaped biofiltration basin pond. The site will also receive a connecting driveway, front entrance circle drive and surface parking spaces.
Through careful planning and site logistics, Greenfire has minimized disruptions to the surrounding neighborhood and to Deerwood Crossing Senior Residences, an existing JFS property adjacent to the site.
Once completed, Woodale Crossing will stand as a model of high-quality, supportive, and affordable housing—further advancing JFS’s mission of providing safe, inclusive, and service-enriched housing to the Brown Deer and Greater Milwaukee community.
