In 2012–14, the Edgewater Hotel at 1001 Wisconsin Place in Madison, Wisconsin, was sold and subsequently renovated and expanded with a new fifteen-story postmodern-style tower and four-story podium to the northeast, which approximate the materials of the original tower. Designed by architect David Maĭnfredi of the architecture firm Elkus Manfredi, the new structure, known as the Wisconsin Tower, seeks to reflect the design of the original building, though its size spurred considerable controversy.

The tower is clad in buff brick and features many Renaissance Revival-inspired flourishes, including quoins, but massing and form that seem to draw inspiration from the original hotel and the nearby Quisling Towers Apartments. The top three floors are set back and clad in a darker material, aiming to de-emphasize their volume. The base of the tower features a podium with larger windows, and the building features a set of two terraces linked by stairs that lead down from the intersection of Wisconsin Avenue and Langdon Street toward Lake Mendota, allowing for the original sightline of the lake to be restored and adding a public plaza, while creating a connection between the original hotel and the new tower, as well as the previously existing footprint of the hotel, which had blocked the end of Wisconsin Avenue since 1972. A new staircase between Langdon Tower and the podium allows for public access to the shore of Lake Mendota, where there are a terrace, walkway, and lakeside docks.
