New windows for The Mill March 22, 2008
Posted by Ron in Preservation, Restaurants.trackback
The Abraham Lincoln Tourism Bureau of Logan County announced this week it had secured a grant to install new windows at The Mill, a historic restaurant on Route 66 in Lincoln, Ill., that will be converted into a tourism center.
New windows doesn’t sound like much. But there are 40 of them in The Mill that were broken out since the circa-1929 restaurant closed more than a decade ago. Cost of the new windows is $17,000 to $18,000, reports the Lincoln Courier.
Covering the cost will be a grant from the Danner Trust, which aims to help historical sites around the county.
Also, the tourism bureau announced there will be a volunteer work day at The Mill on May 10. Those interested should call 217-732-8687.
