Portillo's Sets Open Date in Greenfield's 84South Development

GREENFIELD, WI — Chicago hot dog chain restaurant Portillo's announced they are opening their local restaurant in Greenfield development 84South this April.

The Greenfield location will have seating for 180, with two drive-through lanes an outdoor patio that seats 52, the Business Journal is reporting.

Project Downsized

84 South, a mixed-used development whose plans include more than 250,000 square feet for shops and restaurants as well as 350 market-rate apartment units is downsizing.

According to a report by the Milwaukee Business Journal, four-story apartment units containing 360 units are going to now be three stories tall and amount to 268 units. And instead of 426 underground parking places, 84South would now have 274.
According to the Business Journal's report, the amount that Greenfield would have to finance to build the 426 underground parking spaces was found to be too much, resulting in adjusting downward the scope of the apartment project.

Project Breaks Ground

County officials and developers broke ground on Greenfield's transformative 84South project in late October, announcing a raft of future tenants for the 50-acre development.
According to a FOX 6 report, the following retailers are coming to the 84South development:

• Steinhafels (moving from 84th and Layton)
• Portillo's
• Total Wine
• Fresh Thyme Farmers Market
• Ross Dress for Less
• ULTA Beauty
• Kirklands
• Carter's
• Oshkosh B'Gosh
• Five Below

84South is a massive mixed-use development just south of I-894 and west of S. 84th St. in Greenfield, and is now under construction.
According to an article published by the Milwaukee Biz Times earlier this year, construction on the 40-acre 84South development began in July. Much of the infrastructure work has now been completed, paving the way for future development.
