Tell me about flad development “Flad Development s’ legacy is not about how many buildings we’ve built, but how these buildings have positively enhanced our environment and improved everyone’s quality of life.” Flad Development Tell me about flad development The Developer: Flad Development The Flad name is synonymous with quality architecture and development whose roots in Madison can be traced back to the 1920’s. Today, the Madison landscape is punctuated with numerous Flad-inspired buildings that remain both distinctive and timeless. The Flad family still live and work in Madison, the city they love. A third generation Flad entity, Flad Development & Investment Corp., emerged in the mid-seventies as a leader in the development of quality real estate projects in Madison and Milwaukee. Flad Development’s portfolio includes financial institutions, medical buildings, condominiums and elderly housing apartments, specialty retail centers and integrated mixed-use developments. Whether it be the very vibrant 300,000 square foot Prairie Towne Center with exciting national retailers like Target, Bed Bath & Beyond, Old Navy, Party City, Lands End, Famous Footwear, etc., or the quaint collection of small specialty retailers harmonized into the intimate scale and character that is The Homestead Shoppes, Flad Development boasts some of Wisconsin’s most distinct and unique commercial properties. Retail developments, such as The Brownstones, The Plaza, and Harvard Square in Brookfield, Wisconsin and Cambridge Court, University Station, Essex Square, The Shops at Maple Grove, and Oakbridge Commons in Madison, Wisconsin, are all illustrative of Flad Development’s work. Segoe Terrace, Southridge Village, and Maple Terrace, senior living apartments conceived and developed by Flad in the 1980’s, remain timeless and 100% occupied. Flad Development’s residential jewel, of course, is the Coventry Condominiums. Conveniently located in the Hilldale neighborhood, this 22-unit high-end condominium project was built in 1985 and acknowledged as “best in class.” Flad’s tradition of successful “place-making” continued with its retail renaissance in the Village of Shorewood Hills — Copps Food Store, Borders Books & Music (today, U.W. Credit Union) and Walgreens anchor this urban revival at the corner of University Avenue and Midvale Boulevard just down the street from The Lodge at Walnut Grove. The architectural integration and connectedness of this new urbanist development ensures an environment that is both animated and successful. Flad’s Old Sauk Row development has truly captured the artistry of mixed-use design. A composition of casual restaurants, convenience/specialty retailers and luxury apartments, Old Sauk Row provides Madison’s far west side with enhanced streetscapes and an exciting integration of upscale merchants and urban dwellings. Flad’s most recent mixed use and new urbanist developments further underscore the essence of Flad Development’s corporate philosophy and professional commitment to quality real estate development. Quality is that very conscious component that is the trademark of every Flad Development project. “We believe your time at The Lodge at Walnut Grove will be truly special.” Flad Development 20131018
