The East Side is a neighborhood of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, considered to be a cultural and trend-setting center of the city since at least the 1960s. Encompassing an area just north of the Historic Third Ward neighborhood to the village of Shorewood, bordered by the Milwaukee River to the west and Lake Michigan to the east. Well-to-do settlers with upper-class roots developed the East Side along the lake. The location has an appeal on the Milwaukee bluffs of Lake Michigan. Many of the extravagant homes are still standing today. The East Side is considered by some as Milwaukee's melting pot, with a mix of hipsters, hippies, college students and young professionals converging in the area's diverse restaurants, bars and stores.
