Community Information

transportation housing diversity environment affordable

My community is characterized by many restaurants, shopping, and music festivals both within the neighborhood and because of it's proximity to downtown. Location along Lake Monona also shapes our community through parks, beaches and the Yahara River.

My community is influenced by its history of one of Madison's earliest neighborhoods. It's history as an industrial area shaped many of the area buildings which now comprise the Third Lake Historic District. A period of decline in the 1960s and 70s, followed by a counter culture revival continue to shape the character of the neighborhood today. Growing popularity of the area is now driving up housing prices and changing the composition of the area.

My community borders Lake Monona to the South and includes the Yahara River.

My community has common interests with other neighborhoods on the Isthmus in Madison as well as downtown Madison. These neighborhoods are very engaged in civic affairs. They all grapple with growing popularity of the area that, along with City policies, lead to increase in housing and commercial construction. How to accommodate the growing demand while maintaining a high quality of life for all is an ongoing challenge.
