The downtown Madison condominium community has blossomed from its humble and forward-thinking beginning in 1980 with development of The Fauerbach Condominiums on Lake Monona to an array of over 25 condominium communities. A lot of condos? Not really. Approximately, 1,255 downtown condos and townhomes still account for less than 1%* of all housing units in Dane county. A fun timeline of development for many of these projects, beginning with most recent, follows.
