Shovels in the ground for new Mifflin District student housing community

Real estate development and investment firm CRG on Tuesday announced the start of construction on Chapter Mifflin, a six-story, 516-bed student housing community in Madison’s Mifflin District, adjacent to the University of Wisconsin-Madison. 

The project is situated on a 1.5-acre site of 12 contiguous parcels at 416-436 W. Washington Ave. and 413-417 W. Mifflin St., which were rezoned for higher-density residential. 

Chapter Mifflin will offer 162 fully furnished units — with a mix of studio, one-, two-, four- and five-bedroom apartments — and amenities including outdoor terraces and a public walking path connecting West Washington Avenue to West Mifflin Street.
