Porta Bella Gone, New Student Tower Rising | Madison News
Description
The iconic Porta Bella on North Frances Street is gone—replaced by a massive 16-story student housing tower with 466 beds, set to open fall 2027. Part of a booming student housing trend since 2018, this $40M Core Spaces project will connect to existing Hub Madison apartments, adding 777 units and over 1,100 beds total—with a rooftop pool and 90 parking spots. It’s not just a new building—it’s the next chapter in campus living, marking the end of an era for a beloved local staple.
