Oscar Mayer Special Area Plan, Madison WI

 


Meanwhile, the council opened the door to the first big private development under the Oscar Mayer Special Area Plan. Lincoln Avenue Capital of Santa Monica, California, is proposing two six-story buildings, one with 250 apartments for seniors and the other with 300 units for families, on the former Hartmeyer property near a large natural area with wetlands, trees and open space adjacent to Roth Street and west of the former Oscar Mayer meat processing plant. 
City staff had disagreed with the developer, Ald. Syed Abbas, 12th District, neighborhood groups, and environmentalists over where the city should place new streets in the area, which could influence the number of housing units and how much open space near the development site is preserved.
