Milwaukee developer Wangard Partners is proposing a roughly $117 million neighborhood with multiple housing types, commercial spaces, and open spaces on Madison’s far east side, according to the Wisconsin State Journal.

The site has a total of 35 acres positioned between Token Creek County Park, American Center, and Dane County Regional Airport, and it would feature multifamily housing and mixed-use buildings with 500 total units.

The proposal would be the first to come under the Pumpkin Hollow Neighborhood Development Plan approved in 2008 and amended in 2019, which covers 2,192 developed and undeveloped acres. Built over five years in phases, the project would include:

  • Four two-story townhouse buildings with a total of 28 units;
  • Two two-story stacked flats with individual entrances and a total of 52 units;
  • Nine four-story apartment buildings with a total of 360 units; and
  • Two four-story mixed-use buildings with a total of 60 units.

The commercial spaces would likely offer restaurants and services businesses. Around 40% of the project site would be open spaces, including either green or park spaces, natural wooded areas, or stormwater management.
