The Marquette Bungalows Historic District is part of a neighborhood developed from 1924 to 1930 on the isthmus of Madison, Wisconsin, United States, holding the largest group of Craftsman-style bungalows in the city. In 1997 the district was added to the National Register of Historic Places.
"This district contains two blocks of bungalow-style homes in the Marquette neighborhood and is roughly bounded from Spaight St. to Rutledge St. and S. Dickinson St. to S. Thornton Ave. These bungalows sprouted up between 1924 and 1930 sharing similar shapes and sizes, although each home has certain details and features that make them unique. The size of these homes are not very large, but the quality of details and construction were superb. Many of these homes have wood flooring, fine woodworking throughout, built-in cabinets, and leaded glass windows. The Madison Landmarks Commission declared the Marquette Bungalows a historical district in 1993."
