“We worked with Heather on a commercial real estate purchase and I can't imagine anyone working harder for us on the deal than she did. When we faced challenges with the municipality, she was right there to join in the struggle with us and offer he expertise to get the deal done. She kept communication simply and efficient, stayed on top of all the deadlines, and even handled things for us so we could stay on task in operating our businesses. Heather's skill, experience, grit, drive, and integrity make her the first choice when it comes to buying/selling commercial real estate in great Madison. I highly recommend you consult with her before your next deal.”

Located on an isthmus between two beautiful lakes, and anchored by the Wisconsin State Capitol and the University of Wisconsin campus, this unique shopping, dining, entertainment and business district is home to hundreds of shops, boutiques, galleries, restaurants, pubs and taverns, many locally-owned, plus museums and cultural destinations.
The BID works to market the district as a whole, create a welcoming downtown environment, and further community relations. The BID liaises between district businesses and property owners, the City of Madison, and other downtown stakeholder groups including Downtown Madison, Inc. (DMI), the Greater State Street Business Association (GSSBA), the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the Downtown Coordinating Committee, Capitol Neighborhoods, downtown arts and cultural organizations, and others.
BID funds are used for marketing, business recruitment and retention, enhancements such as downtown art, holiday lights, and flower planters, an Ambassador program and a Downtown Map & Guide. Sponsorships and advertising revenues are used to extend the funding available for BID services and programs.
The BID Board of Directors is appointed by the Mayor, and includes district property and business owners, a downtown Alder, a Mayor's Office representative, and downtown residents. There are two full-time BID employees, an Executive Director and an Operations Director, two part-time programming coordinators plus part-time and volunteer Ambassadors. -
