MADISON

Madison, Wisconsin is known as a don't-miss destination because of its amazing attractions. The city center is dominated by Capitol Square, which includes the majestic State Capitol and its 200-foot dome, plus museums and architectural wonders. The University of Wisconsin campus is a great place for a leisurely stroll. The city is also a perfect jumping-off point for day trips to communities in the surrounding countryside. With 200 miles of trails and 5 sparkling lakes Madison has a reputation as top destination for canoeing and bicycling.

Vibrant and unexpected. Where tradition meets innovation.

MADISON

 The Borough of Madison is located in southeast Morris County, New Jersey, about 22 miles due west of New York City’s Times Square. Sometimes called “The Rose City” and “Bottle Hill”. It is a beautiful community overflowing with colonial and Victorian architecture. Madison, named after President James Madison, was nicknamed the Rose City because of a 19th-century rose-growing industry started by wealthy residents drawn to Madison by its location on the Morris & Essex train line. Today, Madison consists of an area of 4.2 square miles, has a population of approximately 16,000 and remains a diverse community. Drew University, which lies on a 186-acre deciduous forest in the community, truly encompasses the heritage of the town and is a reflection of it’s 147-year existence. Main Street, or Route 124, is the borough’s distinct artery for shopping and dining.
