PROJECT OWNER: Badger Bus
The Depot Apartments in downtown Madison were built on the site of the former Badger Bus depot. The development consists of three linked three-story, four-story, and five-story, buildings. The latter features ground-floor commercial space, including a CVS Pharmacy with a drive-thru window.
To complement the existing neighborhood, the buildings feature a historic motif and uses “tumbled brick” to give a contextual weathered look to match the motif. This development is certified Green-Built and features a solar-assisted hot water system, a highly sophisticated heat pump system that heats and cools the buildings, and green roofs with plants that hold rainwater.
