The James includes two residential wings and numerous community/lifestyle areas that feature a wide variety of high-end, high-tech finishes and amenities. The James also was designed to pay homage to the area’s rich history, company officials say.
“Core Spaces is proud to work with the local community to transform downtown Madison with modern facilities of the highest quality, while honoring the past by paying tribute to the city’s founders and namesakes, including James Madison,” says Eric Grimm, Core Spaces Chief Development Officer. “This transformation includes The James housing community, an iconic building at a prominent location that blends the best of new and old.”
The James, 432 Gorham St., is being developed in the heart of the downtown area with easy access to nearby restaurants, shops, nightlife, and cultural and recreational attractions and just steps from the University of Wisconsin campus and the Wisconsin State Capital. Residents will be able to enjoy upscale features with custom designs from renowned interior designer Studio K and a rooftop sundeck with a pool, hot tub, built-in lounging areas, barbecue grills and beautiful views.
Other world-class amenities will include a fitness center with cutting edge exercise equipment; yoga room with outdoor meditation garden; spa with steam room; virtual trainer and classes; club room with lounging areas and a coffee bar; “mini-market” Breakroom Provisions; executive business area with computers and printers; a climate- and access-controlled parking garage; and free, building-wide high-speed Wi-Fi. The complex also will house convenient retail shops.
The west wing of The James will offer studio to five-bedroom apartments with roommate matching services and double occupancy options. The east wing will offer luxury finishes and features, including Nest Thermostats, bedroom light dimmers and custom tile kitchen backsplashes in the studio to 2-bedroom apartment homes, with access to private amenities and elevators.
Ben Modleski, Core Spaces Chief Operating Officer, notes, “Our goal with every housing community we develop, including The James, is to locate them in growing, sought-after areas where people really want to live. Then we develop housing that meets residents’ needs and fits their lifestyle.
