Sheraton Madison Announces Hotel Renovations Complete

(MADISON, Wis.) – The Sheraton Madison has completed its $15 million renovation. The two-year project was a complete re-imagination of the property, reflecting the vision of owners based in Chattanooga, Tenn.

“We created functional, fun and welcoming spaces for guests and the general public to enjoy, completely transforming the community’s well-loved Sheraton Madison Hotel with thoughtful and aesthetic design elements,” Sheraton Madison General Manager Adam Gautreaux said.

Expertly designed by Sheedy | De La Rose Interiors of Chicago, the Sheraton Madison now invites you to experience a modern, dynamic and local vibe, exemplified in its homage to Madison in its indoor and outdoor murals, meeting rooms names and lobby décor.

The newly renovated guest rooms feature modern finishes, sleek furniture, room for personal storage and cozy seating areas. Each room includes a 55-inch LED TV with multiple streaming capabilities including Prime Video and Netflix, providing an ideal setting for a quiet recharge while on the road.

Located within the renovated lobby area is The Hub, Madison’s newest gathering place for drinks, social hour and more, as well as the new Market, which serves a variety of freshly prepared items for all meal periods.

The hotel is managed by Legacy Ventures, a best-in-class hospitality investment, development and management company, based in Atlanta.

Due to COVID-19, the hotel has implemented increased safety and disinfecting measure in compliance with Marriott International’s Commitment to Clean to ensure guest and employee health. Measures include contactless check-in through the use of mobile key, 24-hour vacancies of rooms between guest departures, social distancing measures and proper masks and personal protective equipment worn by employees at all times.

Former City Attorney Michael P. May to Join Madison Firm Boardman Clark

Michael P. May, who retired as Madison City Attorney on June 1, will be joining the Madison law firm of Boardman Clark in October 2020.

May served 16 years as Madison City Attorney, the second-longest tenure in the City’s history.  He joins Boardman Clark as Senior Counsel. May will provide legal services to municipal and local government clients and provide strategic guidance to the Firm in a number of areas.

“We are excited to have a lawyer of Mike May’s caliber and stature join our firm,” said Richard Heinemann, Chair of Boardman Clark’s Executive Committee. “He has a unique range of experience and expertise that will add to our Firm’s depth in several practice areas, including our municipal and litigation teams.”

“I am extremely happy to join Boardman Clark, one of Madison’s preeminent law firms,” May said. “I love the law, and this new relationship allows me to bring my knowledge and experience to the service of the clients of Boardman Clark.”

May is a native of Madison, graduating from Holy Name Seminary High School, The UW-Madison School of Journalism and Mass Communications, and the UW Law School.  May worked for Boardman, Suhr, Curry & Field, the predecessor of Boardman Clark, from 1979-2004.  In 2004, he was appointed Madison City Attorney by Mayor Dave Cieslewicz, and was subsequently reappointed by Mayor Paul Soglin and Mayor Satya Rhodes-Conway.

Boardman & Clark LLP is one of Madison’s largest, longest-standing law firms. The firm currently operates with 67 attorneys and serves individuals, businesses, school districts, and local governments in a wide variety of practice areas, including municipal, litigation, banking, corporate, estate planning, family, franchise and dealership, intellectual property, labor and employment, real estate, school, and taxation.
