| Additional Information: | The First Settlement Neighborhood: A Walking Tour: "This is an unusual building type for its period since most of the other apartment buildings built prior to the 1910s in Madison resembled single family homes. This one was built by Prussian immigrant Herman Kleuter in 1896. The Kleuter family also built the buildings at 506-508 East Wilson where they lived and operated their meat market business until the 1920s." |
