FROM THE CAP TIMES. A major redevelopment project meant to be a “destination public place” along the Yahara River in Monona has been granted a series of city approvals, putting it in motion to begin construction at the end of the year.
“This site has the unique opportunity to create a new vibrant community connection to the Yahara River that does not exist in Monona,” the development plan states.
The project, known as Yahara Commons, will ultimately create 26,000 square feet of commercial space, 33,000 square feet of office space, a public park and over 230 residential units between West Broadway and Bridge Road along the Yahara River, south of Lake Monona.
