A parking lot behind Main Street buildings in Duluth from the Mathias Building to Pure Taqueria has been undergoing modifications for several months now. In November, the Duluth City Council approved a bid award with Ohmshiv Construction for modifications to the parking lot. However, during construction, unknown conditions were discovered requiring changes to the original contract including poor soil conditions, buried debris, and the need for replacement of thin asphalt.
