MADISON, WISC. The Hilldale Mall on Madison’s near west side is entering into the next phase of its dramatic reinvention. While the Mall has undergone several earlier phases of progressive renovation and redevelopment ,in past years – including eliminating interior hallways, creating new outdoor gathering areas, and expanded retail offerings – this latest metamorphosis could be one of its most dramatic in terms of height, scale and mix of uses. Vandewalle & Associates has been involved throughout these phases in the roles of urban planning, public engagement, and entitlement.
Madison Common Council approved plans for demolition, rezoning, and redevelopment of the former BMO Harris bank building on the site earlier this year. A vision for the site includes four new higher-density buildings with hotel, residential, and retail opportunities along with reuse of the former AMC Madison 6 movie theater building, alone with a large new public event plaza.
V&A worked on the project with Eppstein Uhen Architects, Realm Landscape Architects, and Snyder & Associates, on behalf of WS Development.
