A little piece of downtown Huntsville will soon be mirrored in Madison.

Crunkleton Commercial Real Estate announced Tuesday that The Avenue – Madison will soon be under construction.

The development will be a 256,715 square foot site near the city's historic downtown shopping district and include 10,603 square feet of retail space as well.

The Avenue, a mixed-used development in downtown Huntsville that covers a full city block, opened in 2016. The developers, Charles and Sasha Sealy, will also be developing The Avenue – Madison.

"It’s going to be an area where the people of Madison can live, dine, workout, relax and shop with ease," Crunkleton said in Monday's announcement.

The Madison project will include 190 residential apartment units in addition to the retail developments, according to Crunkleton.

The Avenue – Madison will be located on Sullivan Street near Short Street.

“The Avenues of Madison will breathe life back into our downtown area with livability and shopping, while adding connectivity to our City Schools Stadium," Madison Mayor Paul Finley said in a statement to AL.com. "Adjacent this development, Home Place Park will also get a major facelift when we add landscaping, seating, a performance stage and walking paths. This project will mix the old with the new, continuing to attract people to our historic district.”

The Sealys said the Madison development will be similar to The Avenue in Huntsville, which has 197 loft apartments and more than 20,000 square feet of retail development. The Avenue is home to Oshi Poke Bowl & Sushi , Pet Wants , Purveyor , Scout & Molly’s Boutique and Zoom Indoor Cycling . Melt and The Moon Bakeshop are slated to open there later this year, according to Crunkleton.

Crunkleton is also seeking feedback from Madison residents about what they would like to see at the new development. Suggestions can be submitted at info@crunkletonassociates.com.
