More on Allied Drive Redevelopment

Dean Mosiman:

Madison Mayor Dave Cieslewicz is offering a vision for troubled Allied Drive as he tries to get support for buying and redeveloping a series of worn buildings in the heart of the neighborhood.

The vision includes buying nine apartment buildings on Allied Drive and redeveloping them with condos and perhaps retail space, supporting "good landlords," and closely monitoring the fate of a row of buildings on Carling Drive - a block off Allied Drive - with the potential of another city purchase.

Neighborhood input is important and a planning process will be completed in July, Cieslewicz stressed. But "I'd like people to be clear on what it is I'd like to accomplish."

Madison alder Brenda Konkel has more.
