City of Oconomowoc
Founded in 1837 and incorporated as a city in 1875, Oconomowoc is a Potowatomi Indian term which means River of Falling Waters, or Where the Waters Meet, or River of Lakes. Located about halfway between Milwaukee and Madison, living in this community allows easy access to the amenities of a big city, while providing the comfort of a smaller city.
Oconomowoc is currently the home for approximately 12,600 people, all living within its 10 square mile area. Situated in Waukesha County, the city of Oconomowoc is blessed with a natural beauty provided by two lakes, Lac LaBelle and Fowler Lake, as well as 10 other lakes within 5 miles. Residents of Oconomowoc enjoy a healthy and diverse economy, high quality medical care, excellent schools, variety of choices for retail shopping, and an abundance of cultural and community activities.
Oconomowoc’s strategic location provides ready access to large markets, all forms of transportation, and a favorable tax climate. Oconomowoc boasts three business parks two at capacity and one close to total occupancy, Pabst Farms Development.
Pabst Farms Subdivision
Pabst Farms Development, LLC which is developing the Pabst Farms subdivision of Eastlake Village located in the city of Oconomowoc, is the partnership between Pabst heirs and Libertyville, Illinois developer Peter Bell.
Wisconsin's only other known master-planned communities, where all elements are determined in advance of growth, are Greendale and Kohler. Five hundred acres are earmarked in Pabst Farms for 700 to 900 home-lot packages expected in the $250,000 to $1 million range, 300 acres are designated open space, and the balance is devoted to civic, retail, business and technology/research establishments. The tract sprawls across the City of Oconomowoc and the Town of Summit, traversing I-94's north and south sides.
The project consists of 5 components:
Residences at Pabst Farms: a network of subdivisions, with mid- to luxury-range homes. Higher-density homes will be near retail and business sectors and a few estate-type properties, priced over $1 million, will be built last, probably on lake-hugging sites.
Pabst Village Center: civic, entertainment, high-end retail and possibly assisted-living facilities.
Shops at Pabst Farms: large and national retail establishments.
Business park: light manufacturing, distribution, warehouse and office components.
Technology and research park: enterprises with ties to University of Wisconsin-Madison, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and Marquette University in Milwaukee.
Project completion will take 15 to 25 years.
