On Friday, the Bruegger's bagels location at 2045 E. North Ave. closed.
Workers were seen hauling equipment out of the location and a sign posted on the door encouraged patrons to visit the Bruegger's in Downtown Milwaukee or Whitefish Bay.
The East Side Bruegger's opened just over four years ago, and closed just two months after OnMilwaukee.com moved its office from the East Side to Downtown. Ironically, OnMilwaukee.com's new office is steps away from one of the still open Bruegger's at 753 N.Water St. Coincidence? Yes. But still interesting.

A life-long and passionate community leader and Milwaukeean, Jeff Sherman is a co-founder of OnMilwaukee.
He grew up in Wauwatosa and graduated from Marquette University, as a Warrior. He holds an MBA from Cardinal Stritch University, and is the founding president of Young Professionals of Milwaukee (YPM)/Fuel Milwaukee.
Early in his career, Sherman was one of youngest members of the Greater Milwaukee Committee, and currently is involved in numerous civic and community groups - including board positions at The Wisconsin Center District, Wisconsin Club and Marcus Center for the Performing Arts. He's honored to have been named to The Business Journal's "30 under 30" and Milwaukee Magazine's "35 under 35" lists.
He owns a condo in Downtown and lives in greater Milwaukee with his wife Stephanie, his son, Jake, and daughter Pierce. He's a political, music, sports and news junkie and thinks, for what it's worth, that all new movies should be released in theaters, on demand, online and on DVD simultaneously.
He also thinks you should read OnMilwaukee each and every day.
