Historic Homes and the Riverfront
Established
as a port of commerce on the Ohio River, Madison's foundries built
a culture still enjoyed today. Paddle wheelers moor along the riverbank,
tourists and businessmen alike trade with the city's merchants, and the
architecture brings back memories of another time and place. Indeed,
it is a peaceful place... EXCEPT during the first week of July when the
sounds of thunderboats resonate throughout the river valley. Hydroplanes
from all over the country come to race at the Madison Regatta. Regardless
of whether you need a break from the boat racing action or you're on shore
leave from the riverboat, you'll enjoy this GPS tour while walking, riding,
or driving through historic Madison, Indiana. Also a great guide to
those of you studying The
Early Architecture of Madison.*
