Mandel Group is pleased to present Harlow & Hem, a thoughtfully designed, 157-unit luxury apartment community positioned in the heart of the Village of Wauwatosa. The apartments are serviced by 188 private residential parking stalls and 94 public parking stalls onsite, and an array of lifestyle-driven amenities, targeting the evolving needs of today’s active urban-suburban renters.
The development site encompasses the city-owned Blanchard Street Parking Lots and two neighboring private properties; a unique opportunity to deliver to the Village a comprehensive redevelopment that converts these parcels into exceptional residential spaces while preserving free public parking in the Village.
Positioned at the crossroads of Wauwatosa’s vibrant retail, commercial and entertainment corridors, Harlow & Hem’s branding draws inspiration from both its historic setting and its modern role in shaping a more connected, active Village lifestyle. “Harlow” means rock hill, a nod to the site’s distinctive hillside topography. “Hem” symbolizes the development’s urban design impact - “hemming “ the Village’s built fabric back together by transforming what was once a long-vacant parking lot into a new contemporary residential community.
Harlow & Hem includes studios, 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom unit types. Anticipated opening Fall 2027.
Construction update as of: September 1st, 2026
Construction continued to make steady progress at Harlow & Hem throughout September, with major work taking place on the building's foundation and ground level. Crews completed additional foundation walls and continued building out the areas that will eventually house the parking garage, leasing office, and lobby.
Work also continued on the building's elevator and stair areas, marking another exciting step forward as the structure begins to take shape. Looking ahead, crews will continue completing the remaining foundation work, preparing the site for the next phase of construction, and advancing work on the building's core structure.
