Dive Brief:
A construction team led by Fond du Lac, Wisconsin-based general contractor C.D. Smith recently broke ground on Neutral Edison, a 31-story tower in Milwaukee, according to C.D. Smith. Once complete, it will be the tallest mass timber building in the world, according to the project page from its developer, Madison, Wisconsin-based Neutral.
Neutral Edison will contain 350 studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments, along with approximately 7,200 square feet of retail space, according to the contractor. 
The building was designed by New York City-based design firm Thornton Tomasetti, which worked with C.D. Smith on Ascent, a 25-story building located in Madison that was the tallest mass timber building in the world upon its completion in 2022.
