Despite Downtown Duluth being under major construction, city officials are reminding the public that all downtown businesses are still open and eager for business.

"The Block" and surrounding streets have been undergoing major improvements. Among the changes, Dreamland BarB-Que has begun construction on their new facility between State Route 120 and West Lawrenceville Street.

Street lighting along the Main Street portion of S.R. 120 is being rebuilt and lighting will be out for a few weeks. Drivers and pedestrians are encouraged to be cautious at night in the area. Information: www.duluthga.net.
