One  of our East Side Delegates pointed out the street that runs passed the American Legion Post 577 is going to be closed due to road construction.

On the Map above, the Blue Dot just north of Magnolia Ave & Arcade St is where the American Legion Post 577 is located.

The Map shows Northbound & Southbound Arcade St Detours

• The North Bound Detour for Arcade St shown in Dark Purple. This is Payne Avenue.
• The South Bound Detour for Arcade St shown in Cyan or a Light Blue. This is Edgerton St.

So for our April 22nd Town Hall Forum you’ll have to pay attention to your GPS and the side streets on those 2 Detours. Also expect those 2 streets to have heavy traffic on them and expect delays so plan ahead by adding an extra 10 minutes before you would normally drive there.

The American Legion Parking lot is on Arcade St & Geranium Ave, the other side of the block is Jessamine Ave. See Map
