Choice location on the beautiful Wisconsin River was one reason the State of Wisconsin opted to renovate and expand this nondescript ‘50’s-style building. Transformed, today’s bold new structure reflects its environment in large expanses of curved energy-efficient glass that face the water. Terraced landscaping, a paved bike path, and a scenic river walkway make it a showpiece among state-owned properties.

The existing 36,880 square-foot office building was totally renovated and combined with a new three-story 19,400 square-foot addition. Outside features include five different exterior materials, from the original stone and marble finishes, to new 4’ x 4’ Makato stone panels, face brick, and a glazed aluminum curtain wall. The Makato stone is one-of-a-kind and irreplaceable.
