Sam Clarke
The big fish for small fry sits atop the Madison Children's Museum.
Much love was shown for Madison's many neighborhoods, with answers ranging from the temporary protest burg "Walkerville" to micro-neighborhood Elmside, from historic First Settlement to newcomer Ice Age Falls. The near east side gets the most love, though, with Williamson-Marquette edging past the next contiguous 'hood out, Schenk-Atwood. Many voters indeed saw them as part of one larger east-side ecosystem. Within these neighborhoods, you'll find other favorites, like the fun new Madison Children's Museum or Wi-Fi hotspot Barriques. You can even get your Wi-Fi while traveling among Madison's neighborhoods - on the number 7 Metro bus.
