Locally owned + operated
Your student’s comfort, security, and experience at Grand Central are our highest priorities. And there’s no better way to ensure that than to be right here for your child. In town, on campus, in the building, on-call. Not out-of-state and out-of-touch with what is happening on campus and throughout Madison on a daily basis. In fact, Grand Central was developed and is owned by former UW graduates (who live in the Madison area). Dare we say that’s a connection that makes your student one of us? We do. To our future alum sisters and brothers, when you say Wisconsin…you’ve said it all!
We are here for you, too

Frequently Asked Questions
- Yes! Tenants can park their bikes & mopeds inside our heated, secured parking garage for free. Just be sure to register your bike or moped and stop by the office for your sticker!
- ResTech Services is the building's internet service provider. Internet service is already active in the units upon move-in. An ethernet cord can be plugged into any of the accommodating wall jacks and to a computer for the most stable connection. To set up a secure WIFI source for the apartment, you’ll need to provide your own router. Most routers will work fine, but to get the most out of the high-speed internet service, ResTech suggests using a Netgear or TP-Link router with a serial number beginning with AC or AX and dual-band capability.
- Temporary parking passes are available to tenants for $10/day. They may be reserved in person at the management office and are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
- Installments can be paid electronically through the online AppFolio Tenant Portal. We recommend using the e-check payment option to avoid any fees charged by the payment processing platform. The monthly installment can also be paid by personal check, cashier’s check or money order. Cash payments are not accepted.
Yes. You can reach out to our management team with any questions or concerns via email at campus@lz-management.com or by phone at (608) 441-3400.

- A great and important question to ask. All entrances to the building (including the parking garage and elevators) have controlled access, meaning a fob is required to get in. There are also 24/7 surveillance cameras in all public spaces and entrances. In addition, we have nightly on-site security.
- Absolutely! Monthly payments can be made online via the AppFolio Tenant Portal.
I live at Grand Central this year, and previously lived at X01. Both of the apartments and LZ Management overall are nothing but the best. The maintenance is quick with every request, the management team is always in office and is willing to help with anything and everything. The amenities are amazing too!! They have great activities for their tenants from ice cream trucks to dogs during every finals week! I have never lived in a place in Madison that feels more like home. 10/10 recommend to everyone looking for an amazing home in Madison:)
Great location, kind and helpful management, and great maintenance team. I have nothing but great things to say about living here and I look forward to continuing to live here the rest of my college experience. Great amenities including frequent tenant appreciation with free meals and events.
Grand Central was my first apartment and I absolutely love it! I stayed up till the summer after I graduated! The management and maintenence at Grand Central is outstanding! Everyone is super friendly and helpful especially if its your first time moving out! They host fun events (with free food) throughout the year and they have great security so I always felt very safe. They also have tons of awesome amenities and its a great central location in Madison!
