Built in 1927-1929, this Classical Revival-style building was designed by James A. Wetmore to serve as the United States Post Office and Federal Courthouse for the city of Madison, Wisconsin, though it today serves as an annex to Madison City Hall, known as the Madison Municipal Building. The building replaced an earlier structure from 1867 that served as a US District Courthouse and the city’s main Post Office. In the 1980s, the post office and US District Courts moved out of the building, with the building subsequently becoming the Madison Municipal Building, home to offices for the city of Madison. The building is rectangular at the base, becoming U-shaped on the second and third floors, and clad in limestone with rustication on the first floor, casement and double-hung windows, entrance doors with transoms featuring decorative metal screens, decorative lampposts outside the entrance doors, an ionic colonnade in the central bays of the second and third floors of the front facade, flanked by doric pilasters, with metal spandrel panels between the windows and an architrave and cornice with dentils above, colonnades with doric pilasters rather than ionic columns on the side facades, arched windows at the outer bays of the second floor with decorative keynotes, reliefs with festoons below the third floor windows of the outer bays, and a parapet with balustrades above the windows in the central bays enclosing the building’s low-slope roof. The interior includes former courtrooms with wooden paneling and ceilings with wooden beams, original staircases, the original lobby with a coffered ceiling, decorative chandeliers, and quarry tile floor, and fully modernized office space, service areas, systems, and meeting rooms. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002, and presently houses offices and meeting rooms for the government of the City of Madison, supplementing Madison City Hall across the street.

Built in 1917 and expanded in 1929-1930, this Classical Revival-style building was designed by Law, Law and Potter to house the Bank of Wisconsin, later known as the Bank of Madison. The building and its later addition made to the side along Main Street features a stone base with fluted doric pilasters and engaged fluted doric columns flanking the front entrances on Main Street, large replacement windows on the first floor with recessed spandrel panels between the first and second floor windows, a band of decorative carved reliefs on the architrave on the Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard facade above the second story windows, and a cornice with dentils. Above the second floor, the building is clad in buff brick, with replacement windows featuring spandrel panels at the top, with a band of stone trim broken by the third floor windows, stone sills at the windows on the fourth, fifth, and sixth floors, a band of terra cotta belt coursing with a greek key motif below the windows on the sixth floor, a terra cotta architrave with triglyphs and relief panels featuring festoons with a terra cotta cornice with modillions above on the parapet enclosing the building’s low-slope roof. The building has been modified with the replacement of the original windows and replacement of stone on the architrave above the front entrance to remove the words “Bank of Wisconsin”, but maintains much of its original detailing otherwise. The building presently houses the offices and a service branch of BMO Harris Bank.

Founded in 1848, the University of Wisconsin, today known as the University of Wisconsin at Madison, was created to serve the newly established state of Wisconsin. The university was initially clustered on the hill around today’s Bascom Mall, but began to spread out from this original center around the turn of the 20th Century, expanding into a larger institution, reflecting the growth and development of the state. The university was expanded into a university system with multiple campuses across the state in the mid-20th Century, and today, is the flagship institution of the University of Wisconsin system, with a student body of approximately 50,000, and a staff of approximately 25,000, and anchors the west side of the city of Madison.
