You could do not forget that again in 2025, I did a collection of posts documenting the standing of the South Of Straz Tower Web site, finally mentioning that the timeline specified by February for the start of development on the Iron District stadium had fallen aside. By August 2025, it was clear that there can be no model of Milwaukee Professional Soccer going down in 2026, and undoubtedly not on the location in query, which is what the group administration had introduced can be occurring again in late 2023.
DID YOU KNOW? It has been practically a 12 months since my final replace on the subject, because the final one was revealed on August 7, 2025.

DID YOU KNOW? I drove previous the location final week, and yep: Nothing’s modified.
Effectively, no, one thing has modified. Bear in mind the development barrels in view final August? These are gone, as they had been a part of the Metropolis Of Milwaukee’s venture to repave Michigan Road and set up a motorcycle lane. On reflection, it looks like the town knew nicely sufficient that this stadium development was by no means going to occur. Give it some thought: Would you spend 1000’s of {dollars} constructing concrete curbs/medians to create a motorcycle lane if there was even a 50/50 likelihood that big stadium development gear was going to be within the space within the comparatively shut future? In all probability not, proper?
Anyway, a scarcity of change to the location that is purported to be the longer term dwelling for Marquette soccer and Marquette lacrosse is not why I am posting this. Certain, the shortage of a change right here in late July 2026 is just about proof that there will not be soccer within the 2027 season for the USL Championship. In any case, the development timeline for the stadium was “12 to 14 months” and that is the beginning of October 2027 in the event that they bought began instantly at this time….. which isn’t occurring. Extrapolating outwards, it could very a lot seem to be the 2028 season is now in danger… however that is provided that you truly thought this venture was nonetheless transferring ahead.
You see, it is clear that USL does not assume it is occurring any extra.

Milwaukee Professional Soccer was slated to play in USL Championship. For lengthy whereas, Milwaukee Professional Soccer was listed underneath Future Golf equipment on their web site’s listing of groups. Since I used to be doing the maths on the 2027 season going out the door by the use of lack of development, I figured it was value a glance to see if USL nonetheless listed Milwaukee Professional Soccer as a Future Membership.
They don’t.
I ought to level this out: I do not know when MPS was pulled from the listing. I have never regarded on the USL membership listing since final August after I posted the final replace. May have been final September, might have been final week. I am going to word that the Reddit web page for the franchise — hello to y’throughout there, thanks for linking to my articles previously — posted “5 months in the past” that the Instagram for MPS not existed. That feels sort of necessary as a landmark for when issues formally got here to a halt, and it is potential that the group web site nonetheless exists merely as a result of somebody re-upped the area title and doing nothing is simpler than switching it to a static web page…. particularly whenever you’re apparently afraid to make a public announcement on the subject.

Which jogs my memory: Jim Kacmarcik was the man accountable for all of this Milwaukee Professional Soccer stuff, and he is additionally the Majority Associate/Governor for Ahead Madison FC, the Wisconsin-based membership in USL League One, which is a stage down from the place MPS was purported to compete. I ponder how a lot the USL dwelling workplace dislikes him for losing their time proper now?
