I think you may be out of touch with young professionals and their interests. I may only have numbers and real life examples, but I'm comfortable with that.

You don't even have to go as far as Milwaukee. I think Grand Rapids has quite a nice downtown, and their Heritage Hill neighborhood is like what Brush Park should be, instead of the bombed out rotting hulks of homes, they have beautiful restored victorians right next to downtown.
