Brown County Executive Troy Streckenbach, along with officials representing the Resch Expo partners, officially celebrated the opening of the 127,000 square foot facility yesterday (January 20th).
Completed on time and on budget, the new Resch Expo is constructed on the site of the former Brown County Veterans Memorial Arena and Shopko Hall, next to the Resch Center and across the street from Lambeau Field.
The Brown County Veterans Memorial was a critical factor in the design of the Resch Expo. The decision to better integrate the monument into the newly envisioned plaza made the memorial the centerpiece of this featured public space.
Resch Expo’s design created connections between buildings as well as between nature and the built environment – the abundance of glass windows creates a sense of transparency and access, blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor and welcoming in the distinctive Wisconsin landscape.
