Madison City Hall Restoration & Rehabilitation wins Heritage Award of Merit for Rehabilitation

Madison City Hall, Madison, MS

The City of Madison has transformed its historic high school into the new Madison City Hall through a thoughtful rehabilitation that preserved the building’s architectural character while adapting it for a new civic use.

The project restored the original stairwells, windows, and classroom spaces while sensitively integrating new offices, accessibility improvements, and updated building systems. As part of the rehabilitation, the auditorium stage was reconstructed and the historic proscenium reopened, restoring the space’s original character and allowing it to once again serve as a centerpiece of community life.

The project demonstrates the City of Madison’s strong commitment to preservation and adaptive reuse while ensuring the continued use of one of the community’s most important historic landmarks.
