Historic Greenbush was established as a melting pot of different cultures. Because of urban renewal in the 1960s, much of the architecture that reflected the community’s heritage went away. However, traces of “The Bush” as many called it, remain today. One example of historic Greenbush is the Neighborhood House, a community center that provides local groups a space to meet up – just like it did over a century ago when it was founded.
When it comes to food, you can find everything from pizza parlors to international fare. Greenbush Bakery is a favorite within Madison, as it’s the only city bakery that serves kosher-certified doughnuts. Nightlife in Greenbush includes the Rockhound Brewing Company and the Rustic Tavern.
Dipping your toes in one of the many nearby beaches is sure to excite. But if that doesn’t sway you, the polar bears and tigers at Henry Vilas Zoo might.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
