Broadway
Fountain

First exhibited at the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Exposition, Madison’s Broadway fountain was produced by the James, Kirkland & Company of Morrisania, New York. It was presented to the town by the International Order of Odd Fellows in the late 19^th century. Later it was recast in bronze. It has been refurbished several times.

Park Benches
and
Picnic Tables

There are a limited number of park benches and picnic tables available, which are more likely to be available when there is no festival or event. Nevertheless, this is a nice area to take a break in good weather.

Antique Cars

Its common for people to show off their antique cars and automobiles, during this event, and other events in the fall. Cool, dry and less rain are ideal weather for car shows.
