Madison may not get a Downtown train station anytime soon, but plans to redevelop a two-block area with a hotel, public market, office space and underground parking ramp are moving forward.
The City Council has begun reviewing recommendations for the next steps, including spending up to $200,000 to create a master plan for the two blocks along with Milwaukee-based Marcus Corp. and Madison-based Urban Land Interests.
