519 W Main Street

519-521 W Main St is a 4-story multifamily property consisting of 30 market rate apartments for rent, situated in the downtown of Madison, Wisconsin. Conveniently located in the downtown area, walking distance from the Capitol, major offices, and close to major universities, including University of Wisconsin. The building will provide various units ranging from studios to 3-bedroom apartments (total residential rental area 24,716 sq ft). This would make the project appealing both for students and professionals working in the downtown area alike. The development features an accessory retail space (864 sq ft) for a bakery or a cafe that will serve as a magnet for the local community. Other amenities include: car- and bike-sharing on site, coworking lounge, smart locks, a communal garden with barbecue area. The project is undergoing entitlements and is slated to break ground in the Fall 2024. The construction implements a sustainable building system with mass timber decks, bathroom pods, and other components manufactured off-site. This approach allows condensing the construction timeline and start leasing as early as late Summer 2025. The project is designed to Passive House guidelines and will be seeking certification with the International Living Futures Institute (ILFI).
