Construction stopped during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic but fencing is up around the old restaurant. Demolition will begin the middle of July and is expected to be completed in the spring of 2021.

And finally, a company from Roselle has purchased the AT&T building that has been sitting vacant in downtown Joliet for several years.
