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.

Built in 1928, this Art Deco-style commercial building was designed by Frank Riley for Stanley Hanks, and early on housed a Sears, Roebuck and Company Department Store. The building features a modified first floor facade with fluted pilasters and modern storefronts, as well as fluted ionic engaged columns added by a previous first-floor tenant, a recessed entrance to the second floor with a triangular panel above, limestone cladding on the second floor with vertically-oriented window bays featuring recessed curved notches above, and a parapet enclosing a low-slope roof. The building is a contributing structure in the State Street Historic District, listed on the Wisconsin State Register of Historic Places.

Built in phases between 1911 and 1959, this Prairie and Organic Modern-style house and office were designed by Frank Lloyd Wright to serve as his family residence and studio, with two fires leading to substantial reconstruction of the house in 1914 and 1925. The house, which is named “Taliesin”, Welsh for “Shining Brow” or “Radiant Brow”, referring to the hill upon which it is situated, is a long and rambling structure with multiple sections built at different times, with the building serving as a living laboratory for Wright’s organic design philosophy, as well as growing with Wright’s family, wealth, and business. The house sits on a hill surrounded by fields, but is notably located below the top of the hill, which Wright saw as being such a significant feature of the landscape that it should remain untouched by the house’s presence. The house’s westernmost wings served as the home of livestock and farm equipment, as well as a garage, later becoming housing for the Taliesin Fellowship, where aspiring architects apprenticed with Frank Lloyd Wright. The central wing served as the Frank Lloyd Wright studio, where Wright and his apprentices and employees worked on projects for clients, as well as where Wright often met with clients. The eastern wing served as the Wright family’s residence, and was rebuilt twice, in 1914 and 1925, after being destroyed by fire, and is overall the newest section of the complex, though some portions of the west and central wings were added after the main phase of construction of the residence was complete.
The house is clad in stucco with a wooden shingle hipped and gabled roof, with stone cladding at the base and on piers that often flank window openings, large casement windows, clerestory windows, outdoor terraces and balconies, stone chimneys, and glass french doors, all of which connect the interior of the building to the surrounding landscape. The interior of the buildings feature vaulted ceilings in common areas, stone floors, stone and plaster walls, decorative woodwork, custom-built furniture, and multiple decorative objects collected by Wright during his life. The exterior of the house has a few areas distinctive from the rest of the structure, with a cantilevered balcony extending off the east facade drawing the eye towards the surrounding landscape from the living room of the residence, next to a large set of glass doors that enclose the living room and adjacent bedroom from a shallower cantilevered terrace, while to the west of the residence, and south of the central wing, is a landscaped garden, which rests just below the crest of the hill.
The building was the full-time home of Wright from 1911 until 1937, when Wright began to spend his winters at Taliesin West in Phoenix, Arizona, due to the effects of the Wisconsin winters on his health. For the rest of Wright’s life, the house was the summer home of Wright and the Taliesin Fellowship, and following his death, the house was deeded to the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation, which operated and maintained the house as a museum and the home of multiple programs until 1990. Since 1990, the house has been under the stewardship of the nonprofit Taliesin Preservation Inc., which operates the house in conjunction with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. The building is a contributing structure in the Taliesin Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973, and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1976. Taliesin was one of eight Frank Lloyd Wright buildings listed as The 20th-Century Architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2019. Today, Taliesin is utilized as a museum, offering tours and interpretation of Frank Lloyd Wright’s life and work.
