The Marina Condos in Downtown Madison WI
The Marina, located at 137 E. Wilson Street, is one of the most striking condo buildings in downtown Madison. Designed by Madison architect Kenton Peters, The Marina stands out with its distinctive aluminum‑clad exterior and bold modern lines. Many consider its position along Lake Monona to be one of the premier lakefront locations on the Isthmus, offering sweeping views of the lake and the downtown skyline.
Architecture and Interior Design
The Marina’s floor‑to‑ceiling windows and angled façade were designed to maximize natural light and capture the full sweep of Lake Monona. Inside, the layouts emphasize openness, long sightlines, and modern materials that complement the building’s exterior. Its position along the lakefront path makes it one of the most walkable spots on the Isthmus, with effortless access to the Capitol, Monona Terrace, and downtown Madison.

Pets and Schools at The Marina
The Marina is known to be dog‑friendly, including for many larger breeds, though buyers should always confirm the current rules in the condo documents. And because this is Madison, dogs tend to assume they’re welcome everywhere anyway — humans merely follow their lead. Children living here attend O'Keeffe Middle School and MadisonEast High School.
