Madison Park and Madrona both harbor gorgeous homes and a tight-knit
sense of community. Madison Park is affluent and genteel; home to tree-lined streets, magnificent houses, elegant shops, and exclusive
country clubs. Its southern neighbor, Madrona, has less of the polish, but makes up for it in character. Ethnically diverse, this
traditionally African American community has gentrified gracefully. Colorful boutiques, salons, and cafes are abundant along the
streets, where old and new businesses stand alongside each other.
