I have dealt ON and OFF with that property for many many many years. This is not the first time this conversation has been brought up. I said it years ago and I'll say it now....
NOTHING will be a success at that location. " Nothing ".. In the last 30 years, nothing has been successful. I'm not saying some of the food wasn't pretty darn good, but Parking is terrible. Not enough parking, and not enough foot traffic. The Location is TERRIBLE, very visible but terrible locations.
I would suggest that ALTON allows a Large Corporation come in and LEVEL IT!! Make a 7 story Hotel/Condos there with parking underneath. Retail shops and stores will not survive there.
