Silverspot Cinema, the movie theater at The Corners of Brookfield, to close June 16
Silverspot Cinema, the upscale movie theater at The Corners of Brookfield, will close June 16, leaving one of the shopping center's anchor-tenant spaces empty to be repurposed in plans to reimagine Market Street with new retailers. The Corners, located in the Town of Brookfield, announced in a May 21 news release that the movie theater and center "mutually agreed" to end the Silverspot's lease. The theater, which opened in 2019, will be updated as retail space in the second half of the year, a spokesperson confirmed to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. 'This was not an easy decision, but one made thoughtfully and collaboratively in the best interest of our customer," Robert Gould, CEO of Brookfield Corners LLC, said in the release. Gould said the change is reflective of customers' desires for "brands that are relative to their aspirations and the way they live their lives," adding that the "movie industry continues to face headwinds." Gould is also the head of IM Properties in the U.S., which is the developer and owner of The Corners. Silverspot CEO Gonzalo Ulivi said in the release the group is proud of the theater experience they brought to the Town of Brookfield over the past five years. The two-story, nine-screen theater offered an elevated time at the cinema, with cocktails and meal options delivered straight to viewers' seats. "While it's always difficult to leave a market, this mutual decision reflects the changes and opportunities both sides see ahead," Ulivi said. In the absence of the theater, Market Street will undergo changes in landscaping, seating, parking and other public space improvements while bringing in new and updated retailers to The Corners. Alo Yoga, a Los Angeles-based luxury activewear and wellness brand, will open its first Wisconsin store on Market Street in late summer 2025. The women's clothing store Evereve will relocate from High Street to a new and larger storefront on Market Street, also with plans to open later in the summer. Market Street has grown in the last few years with the opening of restaurant Margaux French Brasserie in 2024. The street's makeover should be completed by the end of 2026, according to the release. A plan for 278 luxury apartments at the site of what used to be La Quinta Hotel and two restaurants is also moving forward at The Corners, with construction expected to begin in 2026. The 40,000 square-foot development, known as the West End, is being developed with Mandel Group, Inc. and will include a fitness and wellness club for all tenants at The Corners. Additionally, an anchor retail tenant along Bluemound Road will be announced once lease terms are negotiated, according to the release. Bridget Fogarty reports on Wauwatosa, Brookfield and Elm Grove.

Scholarship recipients speak at Big Tide Career Fund
SAVANNAH, Ga. (WSAV) — The inaugural Big Tide Career Fund was held at J.W. Marriott Plant Riverside. WSAV's Tina-Tyus Shaw served as host, with Big Tide presenting scholarships to three students. They represent the next generation of leaders from Savannah High, Liberty County High and Bradwell Institute. 'I'm so honored for this to be the inaugural years of our career fund and to be giving awards to the incredible talents of students who are going directly to college,' said Robert Gould, Big Tide founder. 'And then also we have students who are going directly into trade. We are there to be the bridge for them for the essential items that they need to be successful.' The recipients were Riniya Roberts, Ivan Tovar Torres and Oquahajie Williams. 'It shows that with hard work and dedication things can pay off,' said Williams. 'You know as a student athlete, we work hard not only in the classroom, but as a student athlete we work hard. Not only in the classroom, but also off on the field. And we're coming back home sometimes at 8:00 at night and on Friday nights like 12:00 at midnight and still maintaining a high GPA. Maintaining all A's in my class means a lot.' 'I feel very grateful to be able to receive this,' said Roberts. 'To be honest I was with you I was very shocked to be able to receive it at first. And, it's like, wow!'

Big Tide Summit is back in Savannah
SAVANNAH, Ga. (WSAV) — The annual Big Tide Summit is back in Savannah, and students were there to learn from the best in the field. Students from all over the county are gathering today to learn from experts in various fields, as well as get careers advice for the next steps of their future. Electric and inspiring is how attendees said this year's Big Tide Summit made them feel. 'Dream, the biggest I could dream. And if I shoot for the moon, then I might use some more stars,' third-year attendee Eden Truest Canady said. Founder Robert Gould is an integral part of the operation, stating events like these are mandatory to give back to our future. 'The state of Georgia is in an economic typhoon right now of jobs and emergence in technology and in stem and in steam, and so if we don't just create the trades, but also we have to create the sustainability of a career,' Big Tide Summit Founder Robert Gould said. Students went through pitch labs where some were given funding for their dreams and future aspirations as well as pitching to employers for part-time, full-time, and mentorship opportunities. Some students even won scholarships and WSAVS own Tina Tyus Shaw served on the stage as a judge for many of the events. 'Some of the people that like and see how their daily life lives were in their career and they kind of guided us through how to get to certain points in our careers. So that was good,' Joey Truschelly, first year attendee, said. This is the third annual year that this event has been held in Savannah, and event organizers told WSAV that they're excited to continue to inspire the youth for many more years to come.
