Aerial view of Middleton's 3rd ward.  A 2009 inventory identified 2,335 ash trees along streets and on public lands (not trees on private property) -- 28% of the city's total trees at the time.  The recommended urban forestry guideline is no more than 20% of any genus and 10% of any species.

Do they still picnic in Segoe Park?



If so, it's not likely that anyone carries a picnic basket.


Segoe Park is a 1.92-acre mini park located on Segoe Road between Mineral Point and Odana roads on Madison's west side.

The park is located within the Midvale Heights neighborhood, an area of Madison which saw its greatest period of growth take place after World War II and into the 1950s.  Odell Street (highlighted in orange) was the 1955 Parade of Homes site.
