A Festive Peek at Our Holiday Decor in Tenney-Lapham

Tinsel? Check. Twinkling lights? Check. Cozy touches that make you want to sip hot cocoa and play your favorite holiday playlist? Absolutely. The holidays have arrived at City Row, and the building is looking as cheerful as ever.


Located in the heart of the Tenney-Lapham neighborhood, our community has embraced the season with festive charm. Whether you’re arriving from the snowy sidewalks of East Johnson Street or stopping by the lounge on your way to the mailroom, you’re welcomed by a bit of extra sparkle this time of year.


Let’s take a little tour, shall we?

Step One: The Steps.

Our front entry is dressed to impress. A full evergreen wreath with a red bow sets the tone, framed by cheerful mini Christmas trees in modern blue planters. It's a classic winter greeting with a clean, urban edge.

The Lobby: Subtle Sparkle

Inside, a tall tree stands bright with warm lights and traditional red, gold, and green ornaments. It’s understated but elegant. You’ll also find festive ribbons and just the right amount of holiday shimmer.

The Community Lounge: Comfort and Cheer

This is the heart of the holiday setup. Soft-toned couches, a cozy area rug, and vibrant poinsettias give the lounge a relaxed, welcoming feel. It’s the kind of place you might want to linger a bit longer, whether you're chatting with a neighbor or warming up after a walk. And yes, there’s another twinkling tree to round out the scene.


Whether you’re heading to your apartment, catching up with a friend in the lounge, or grabbing a latte from Johnson Public House just down the block, the spirit of the season is alive and well at 614 E Johnson Street.


If you’re searching for apartments in Madison, WI that offer a comfortable, community-centered lifestyle near downtown, City Row is worth a visit. With affordable apartments, walkable access to shops and parks, and a location in one of Madison’s most vibrant neighborhoods, it’s a place that feels like home this season and beyond.


Come explore Tenney-Lapham this winter or stop by City Row and see what makes our community special. We’d love to show you around.
