Bucks arena has cleared its final step, but it looks like the permanent closure of 4th street is still an open issue. Barrett to sign city financing this afternoon. http://www.jsonline.com/news/milwaukee/aldermen-approve-borrowing-for-the-new-arena-b99581782z1-328671581.html Great day for the city, I just can't believe how much less controversial this was as opposed to Miller Park. I understand that its completely different since Bucks ownership is pay for 1/2 of the arena and taxes aren't being raised, but I still expected a fight.
