Ascent MKE is a mass timber hybrid high-rise apartment building in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.[1] The 284-foot (87 meter),[2] 25-story high-rise is the world's tallest mass timber structure, edging out Norway's Mjøstårnet.[3][4] It features 259 luxury apartments, retail space, an elevated pool with operable window walls, and a sky-deck.[5][6]

In May 2019, Ascent was named a recipient of a U.S. Department of Agriculture grant awarded through the Forest Service's Wood Innovations Grant program.[7] The federal grant assisted with the testing needed to prove mass timber's ability to perform as well as traditional building materials like concrete and steel to meet U.S. building codes.[8]

Plans for the project were unveiled in 2018.[9] While the initial design included 21 floors,[10][11] updates and subsequent approvals brought the total to 25 floors in March 2020.[12][13]

The project has been presented at the 2018 international CTBUH conference in Dubai,[14] the 2019 international CTBUH conference in Chicago, the 2019 International Mass Timber conference in Portland.[15]

Construction on Ascent began in August 2020, and the building was completed in August 2022.[1]
