The Madison, Indiana historic district contains 2096 resources in approximately 2050± acres and is a combination of residential, commercial, industrial, and landscape features. Description Setting and Plan The Madison historic district is situated along the second and third terraces of the Ohio River. At this location, the terraces provide a natural platform for the historic town, above most flood stages, and yet closely related to the river and the angle of its flow. The Ohio River flows westward at Madison, toward the Mississippi, oriented in a general east-west direction. Rising steeply on the north side of the district (and across the river in Kentucky) are high limestone bluffs that provide a backdrop to the town and provide much of its historic and scenic beauty. For thousands of years, they have protected the river terraces upon which the town is built from extreme winds and temperature changes. Plants that have difficulty surviving on the high bluffs luxuriate in the warmer, moister climate of the river valley. The steep hills have also served to hinder modern development, which has instead occurred on the easier-to-manipulate tops and the flatter land to the north. Three roads and a rail line traverse the hills from the river to the top of the bluff. One of them is the historic Michigan Road, which served as a major north-south artery through the former Old Northwest Territory. Two others take advantage of natural valleys to make the journey north from Madison, to its contemporary counterpart on the hill (formerly North Madison). In addition, an early nineteenth century railroad incline and road cut break through the hills at the western part of the district. Beyond the district to the northwest is Clifty Falls State Park, nestled in steep bluffs. To the east of the district, gentler hills interspersed with graceful hollows follow the curve of the river in a northeasterly direction to the small town of Vevay, in Switzerland County, about twenty miles upstream. Madison's town plan is a regular grid, which is canted at about the center (at West Street), allowing most of the east/west streets to maintain their relationship with the gently curving river. In general, the numbered streets run east/west and increase from south to north. The exceptions are major arteries, such as Main Street which is at the command center and is also the route of SR 56 and is extremely wide. North/south streets are variously named (Vine, Elm, Mill, and Depot). Main Street, which runs east/west, is extremely wide. The widest north/south streets are: Broadway, which is a boulevard containing a fountain and plaza north of Main Street; and Jefferson Street. The latter serves as the western border north of the courthouse block and it is the route of US Highway 421. Within the city blocks, alleys form a regular grid. Lots are evenly spaced in the oldest parts of town, near the original plat, which was laid out in 1809. Later subdivisions platted during the nineteenth century created smaller narrow lots in order to accommodate more residences. Today, there is a pleasant variety in the density of buildings, with some sections comprised mainly of rowhouses and others of more generously spaced residential lots. General Character of the Built Environment The historic district represents a mix of commercial, institutional and residential buildings. The two former types are concentrated at the center, for the most part, and the latter toward the outer edges. The few surviving industrial buildings are placed toward the outer rim of the district with only a few exceptions. Madison's orientation along the river benefited the nineteenth century businesses which depended on it as their major mode of transportation. Madison contains an impressive
