Brennan’s Market at 5533 University Ave. closed at the end of September along with four other locations throughout the state. The 75-year-old company, known for its cheese, fruit, vegetables, beer and wine, announced it was closing in July, citing tight competition in the grocery market.

“There’s a lot of sadness. It was an incredibly well-run business with a lot of respect from their customers and their employees,” company spokesman Wayne Glowac said in a Wisconsin State Journal article.

At the time, Glowac added that the company had tried to find a similar business to replace Brennan’s, but “couldn’t find anyone to match their model.”

Now, Realm Real Estate Development, LLC, is proposing a mixed-used development with 52 apartments on the site.

The 48,000-square-foot building would feature 8,100 square feet of commercial space on the first floor and three upper floors of apartments, ranging from studio to two-bedroom.

One level of at-grade parking and one level of underground parking would provide a total of 89 stalls.
