According to Christy Daniels (photo above), "Americans eat 100 acres of pizza each day."  Downtown Pizza may be the best kept secret in town for getting your pizza fix.  They opened in December at 227 S. Main Street in Thiensville without a lot of fanfare, but the response has been very positive.  Downtown Pizza utilizes quality ingredients, and the pizzas are made fresh to order.  They make their own crust and the cheese is grated by hand every day.  They plan to have a Grand Opening sometime this summer.  In the meantime, watch for the Dancing Tomato out front.  Be sure and say hello, as he is a special needs student that loves what he does.  They want to be active in the community and are looking to hire high school students or college students from the area.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Port Washington State Bank is a family owned bank that has served Ozaukee County since 1899.  According to James Schowalter(shown above), "While the Thiensville and western Mequon market is now served by several regional bank offices, it was determined through market research and local outreach that the area would benefit from the services and involvement of a truly independent community bank.  Port Washington State Bank already numbers many households and businesses as customers in the area and intends to build on and expand those and new relationships with this office."  

 

The bank has $540 million in assets and 115 people are employed.  The new branch (pictured above) will open in May.  Not only did they improve a blighted property located at Main and Spring Street, they are establishing a scholarship at Homestead High School.
