Union Transfer Condos in Downtown Madison WI
Union Transfer, located at 155 E. Wilson Street, sits just two blocks from the Capitol and steps from Lake Monona. Architect Kenton Peters transformed the original six‑story Union Transfer warehouse — once a bustling transfer and storage operation with very high ceilings and heavy timber construction — into a collection of 27 upscale condominium residences, opening in 1999. Much of the building’s industrial character was preserved in the conversion, including its tall ceilings, brick exterior, and structural timber elements, while introducing modern layouts, large windows, and the exceptional natural light the building is now known for.
With its historic bones and boutique scale, Union Transfer offers a quieter, more architectural style of downtown living. Residents enjoy immediate access to the lakefront paths, the Monona Terrace, the Capitol Square, and the growing Wilson–Doty corridor — one of the most walkable pockets of the Isthmus.
