The Dylin is a 52,279-square-foot, three-story Aparthotel that blends history with modern living, offering extended-stay comfort in the heart of Madison. The development includes three connected buildings: the historic Reynolds House, a new companion home, and a modern structure of two levels of post-tensioned concrete, one below grade, and two stories of wood framing to create 51 extended-stay units.
The Reynolds House, a three-story brick residence, was stripped to its bones and fully remodeled to meet current code while restoring its character. Exterior brick was repaired, the foundation updated, and details like oak trim and decorative pieces preserved. Next to it, the new Metzger House mirrors the Reynolds House in scale and style while introducing modern elements such as ACM panels and Hardie siding. Its basement includes a wet bar and lounge.
Between the two homes rises the modern 51-unit aparthotel. Its Dayton Street entrance incorporates the preserved 1929 garage façade, now forming the main lobby and entry to 25 underground parking stalls. The exterior blends ACM panels, burnished block, and Hardie siding. Inside, studios to three-bedroom units feature full kitchens, stainless appliances, in-unit laundry, and high-quality finishes. Amenities include a fitness center, outdoor patio, and welcoming lobby.
