East Towne Tosa
If you are looking for a vibrant community in an extremely convenient location, you must look at East Town Tosa. Located at the far NE section of Wauwatosa, this neighborhood is bordered by 60th Street to the East, 76th Street to the West, North Avenue to the South, and Center Street to the North (except for those few blocks where Wauwatosa runs North of Center for a half block or so - 73rd St, 74th St, and 75th St.).
Residents love the walkability of the neighborhood. On any given day or night you will see people out walking, usually with a dog or a stroller or both! You can walk to City Hall and the library, conveniently located on 76th & North Avenue, plus you can
walk to schools, parks, and all the great shops and restaurants along North Avenue. Some of the best known restaurants are Il Mito, Ted’s, the Rosebud (a cinema drafthouse) and Cranky Al’s. Juniper 61 recently opened on the corner of 61st & North and is fast becoming a neighborhood favorite also.
Many of the homes in the neighborhood were built in the 1920’s and have lots of Old World Charm. You will find many bungalows, along with cape cods and colonials. Artificial fireplaces, built-in buffets or china cabinets, leaded glass, gleaming hardwood floors, coved ceilings and arched doorways are the norm. Here are interior pictures of a couple homes in the neighborhood that I have had the pleasure of selling.

Wauwatosa is a city of volunteers. One of my favorite volunteer groups is the Wauwatosa Beautification committee (WBC). This is a group dedicated to maintaining the beauty of our city by planting and maintaining shrubs & flower beds throughout the City of Wauwatosa. When budget cuts threatened to eliminate most of the beautiful flower beds in the medians and in the planters along North Avenue, the WBC stepped in. For the last few years I have helped by volunteering as a “gardening angel”, planting and maintaining the flower bed in the median in front of my office on 117th and North Avenue.
