In the third week of daily protests against Republican Governor Scott Wallker's attack on the middle class, a crowd of 70,000 Wisconsin citizens gathered in Madison, Wisconsin. Firefighters, police, electricians, teachers, nurses, friends and neighbors marched in solidarity. Filmmaker Michael Moore joined us. The crowd was somewhat smaller than last week as many were working in districts throughout the state to gather recall petitions against 8 Republican Senators.

Built in 1907, this Dutch Colonial Revival and Arts and Crafts-style house was designed by Frost and Granger for Dr. Reginald Jackson and his wife, Elizabeth Jackson. The house features a fieldstone base with wooden shingle cladding on the upper portion, a front and side gambrel roof, one-over-one double-hung windows with leaded glass upper lights, shed dormers on the sides of the gambrel roof, bracketed eaves, a stone chimney, large wooden heavy timber brackets and a semi-circular one-story bay window below the cantilevered front gambrel, a side sunroom with an arched entry door flanked by sidelights, and an uncovered front terrace surrounded by fieldstone half-height walls. The house is a contributing structure in the Mansion Hill Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.

Built in 1928, this Art Deco-style skyscraper was built to house the offices of the Wisconsin Power and Light Company. The building is clad in limestone with a classically-inspired tripartite composition. The two-story base of the building is relatively plain with limestone panel cladding, large storefront windows on the first floor, a front entrance with a large decorative transom and a canopy over the sidewalk, smaller one-over-one windows on the second floor, with the top of the base being demarcated by a band of extruded belt coursing at the base of the sills of the third-floor windows, with greek key motif on several portions. Above the base is the shaft of the building’s exterior composition, which features one-over-one windows with the middle bays in groups of three and four featuring decorative recessed spandrel panels featuring depictions of electrical generators, a unique choice and a nod to the building’s original tenant. The spandrel panels end at the base of the ninth floor windows, with the tenth floor windows being detached, forming part of the capital of the composition, with a band of extruded belt coursing around the base of the parapet, with volutes and stepped parapets enclosing the low-slope roof, and carved relief panels. The building has since become known as the Hovde Building, and houses several commercial office tenants.
