Found sheet music near Milwaukee Public Market
I was tidying a corner outside Colectivo Coffee at 6:15 p.m. on a Tuesday when I spotted a crumpled bundle of sheet music wedged under a bench by the Milwaukee Riverwalk. The pages rustled in the breeze, a coffee ring darkening the top sheet, and someone’s tempo marks penciled in the margins. It felt like a tiny voice asking to be returned to its owner. I slid the sheets into a folder and stood watch for a moment, hoping the owner would recognize it. I’ll keep it here safe until it’s claimed.
Blue hardcover travel guide found near Milwaukee Public Market
I found a blue hardcover Milwaukee travel guide this afternoon around 2:45pm, left on the curb just outside the Milwaukee Public Market on Water Street. The cover is a sturdy navy blue with gold lettering, and the spine is noticeably creased from travel. Inside the front cover there's a small sticky note that reads 'Alex 1127', plus a folded Riverwalk map tucked in the back pocket. It looks well-loved but the pages are clean, with a faint coffee stain along the bottom edge. It clearly belongs to someone who uses it—a bit sentimental, I can tell. If this is yours or you know who it belongs to, I can help reunite you.
Found black North Face parka near Riverwalk
I found a black North Face parka this afternoon around 2:15pm outside the Milwaukee Public Market along the Riverwalk near 400 N Broadway. It's a men's medium, puffy with a detachable faux-fur hood and bright red zipper pulls. The left sleeve has a small embroidered fox patch and there's a light scuff on the right cuff from winter wear. Inside the pocket lies a blue bus-ticket stub with the initials 'MB' on the tag—an odd but helpful clue. I’d really love to get it back to its owner; Milwaukee winters are rough, and this coat clearly means a lot to someone.
Blue hand-painted porcelain vase with gold rim
Yesterday around 3pm I realized my blue hand-painted porcelain vase is missing. It’s about 12 inches tall, cobalt blue with white floral motifs and a delicate gold rim; the glaze has a subtle crackle. It’s a local Milwaukee piece, signed on the bottom 'A. Kim 2021'. There’s a tiny chip on the lip that I hope someone would recognize. It was a gift from my grandmother and it means the world to me, so I’d really appreciate it if it’s found near the Milwaukee Public Market area in the Third Ward, outside the entrance on Broadway and St. Paul Ave.
Black Anker PowerCore 10000mAh charger with pineapple sticker
I lost my black Anker PowerCore 10000mAh portable charger yesterday around 3pm outside a coffee shop near the Milwaukee Public Market on Water Street in the Third Ward. It’s a compact, matte black block, about the size of a phone, with a small pineapple sticker on the back and a frayed USB-C cable still poking out. There are a few light scratches and a tiny dent on the bottom-right corner. I rely on it daily for work and navigation, so I really need it back. If anyone finds it, please drop it off near the Milwaukee Public Market or message me.
Navy hoodie with pine-tree embroidery, lost near Public Market
I lost my navy blue hoodie this afternoon around 4:15pm near the Milwaukee Public Market on Water Street. It's a size L fleece-lined hoodie from Nike, with a small pine-tree embroidery on the left chest and a coffee stain on the right cuff from this morning's latte spill. The zipper pull is slightly bent and there’s a hidden inner pocket where I kept my bus pass. This hoodie means a lot to me because it was a gift from my mom last winter, and I wore it during a lot of tough days. If anyone found it, I’d be forever grateful to get it back—you can reach me at [email protected].
Cream retriever mix found near Milwaukee Public Market
I found a dog this afternoon around 3:15pm near the Milwaukee Public Market on Water Street. He's a medium-sized, cream-colored retriever mix with a blue nylon harness and a red collar. He has a white patch on his chest, and his left ear flops a little compared to the right. There's a bone-shaped tag that reads 'Milo' along with a phone number, though I haven't been able to reach the owner yet. He seems friendly but a bit anxious after being on the street, and I know how nerve-wracking it is to lose a pet in a big city—really hoping the owner sees this and can reunite with him soon.
