What's Coming to Main Street
The Plan Commission recommended the Village Board approve Soul Good Coffee’s first brick-and-mortar shop at 4022 Main St.
Zoom out: These exciting plans are part of a larger project to rehabilitate the property at Keystone Avenue and Main Street and bring tenants that will be neighborhood destinations.
Additional investment is underway at the new Halal Market & Grill, 4043 Main St. The Village supported this project with a $49,090 storefront enhancement grant, a program helping commercial property owners establish more attractive store spaces.
Planning for the future: Last summer, the Village engaged consultant MKSK, Inc. to help plan the future of the Main Street commercial corridor between Crawford and Tripp Avenues.
Following stakeholder meetings and extensive research, the plan is in development and anticipated to be shared this summer.
The plan looks at ideas for how commercial spaces can be used or redeveloped, enhancements of pedestrian and bicycle spaces, and identification of additional parking opportunities.
