HeadlineWisconsin State Journal, 6/28/2023
JD McCormick Properties of Madison had been seeking to raze three, two-story buildings at 428-430, 432-436 and 440-444 State, two of which were built in the late 1800s, next to Lisa Link Peace Park. They were to be replaced by a six-story building with 25 housing units and 6,285 square feet of commercial space in the basement and first floor.  
The Plan Commission on Monday voted unanimously to place McCormick’s request for a demolition permit “on file without prejudice,” meaning it’s denied but the developer can come back anytime with the same proposal and provide more information. It unanimously voted for an “indefinite referral” of McCormick’s request for a conditional use permit for the new structure.

JD McCormick Properties is seeking to raze three, two-story buildings at 428-430, 432-436 and 440-444 State St. — two built in the late 1800s — for the new building, which would have a restaurant on the first floor with seating on the second floor overlooking State Street, commercial space in the basement and first floor and 23 to 26 housing units.
The exterior, a mix of modern and classical themes, will be mostly masonry and glass with large amounts of glass facing State Street and adjacent Lisa Link Peace Park at the first-floor level, plans submitted to the city say.
