Happy birthday to our hometown: Milwaukee turns 180-years-old 🎂

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- In just a few days, the City of Milwaukee turns 180-years-old!

But the Milwaukee Press Club is celebrating a little early Thursday, Jan. 29. 

The actual anniversary lands on Saturday. That's when, all the way back in 1846, Milwaukee became Milwaukee. 

Thursday nights celebration was hosted at the Grain Exchange. 

Of course, there was plenty of birthday cake, in the form of a giant disco ball!
