Three Leaf Partners has a propensity for multifamily developments and also does mixed-use, commercial and senior living projects. Even as it has grown, it selects projects based on relationships with partners in the local real estate world as it also looks to make an impact — a strategy Connaughton sees as a competitive advantage.

With a stylish new downtown Milwaukee office, a growing team and an expanded pipeline of projects, Milwaukee Bucks player Pat Connaughton’s real estate development firm Three Leaf Partners has been scaling its impact beyond its roots in single-family home flipping.

Three Leaf Partners, a development firm founded by Milwaukee Bucks player Pat Connaughton, plans to build a six-story, 247-unit market-rate apartment building at the site of the former Clark Oil corporate headquarters in West Allis.

Two concept plans for apartment developments will be before the village of Grafton’s Plan Commission tonight, with up to 460 possible apartment units being considered between the two proposals. The Three Leaf Partners development, called the Grafton Triangle, is a mixed-use plan for the northwest corner of the intersection of 17th Avenue and Washington Street.

Milwaukee developer Three Leaf Partners and the city of Janesville have reached an accord to annex and alter city land-use plans to allow a 1.5 million-square-foot strawberry greenhouse operation on the city’s south end.
