Block 100 Redevelopment

Six buildings located one block from the Wisconsin State Capitol were united as a single parcel. Three buildings were torn down and rebuilt, and three buildings were renovated. Two of the renovated buildings (Castle & Doyle Building, Schubert building) are on the National Register of Historic Places. Care was taken to preserve many of the architectural features of these historic buildings, such as the stained glass windows on the Schubert building and the terra cotta tiles on the Castle & Doyle Building. The new structure houses retail establishments on the 1st floor fronting State Street and a fine dining restaurant at the opposite elevation. The 2nd through 4th floors accommodate commercial leases. The total project size was 51,500 square feet, with a total project cost of $11 million. It was completed in spring 2014. All proceeds from rentals are donated by the property owners to the Overture Center for the Arts.
