Re: Downtown buildings in Granite City
I am happy to see the efforts in the downtown area...we have more small business there now then in the recent years....as for route 3..I have not see anything out there except Wallmart and Aldies and a truck lot..I talk to many who live in Granite and due to the high crime at Wall Mart most will not shop in that area...I would love to see more return to the Nameoki Commons Area. That shopping center has been neglected for so long it will be difficult to find and investor to renovate it.. I agree with Opie, due to the general income level remaining in Granite City big box will not come here...look at what happened to Lowe's. Big business will not invest where they can not make profit..
