Coffee with a view: As a University of Wisconsin-Madison student in Milwaukee for the summer, thereâ??s one place that feels a little like home – Alterra at the Lake, 1701 N. Lincoln Memorial Drive. The chairs on the patio are just like those found at the Memorial Union in Madison. The only difference is the view: Instead of looking across Lake Mendota, youâ??re looking at Lake Michigan. I can plop down in one of those iconic chairs, grab a drink – nothing says summer to me more then an iced mocha with whipped cream – and take in the moment. – Cailley Hammel
