Upscale Mixed-Use Residential Development in the Heart of Shorewood
Mosaic is a mixed-use development located along Oakland Avenue in Shorewood, Wisconsin, featuring 95 upscale apartment residences and approximately 17,000 square feet of commercial space. Completed in 2017, the development integrates residential living with neighborhood retail, restaurants, and everyday services.
