Former Collier’s Building Razed
By Amanda [email protected]
The town of Winona Lake purchased the property, at 2499 E. Winona Ave., in 2018 for $329,000; $325,000 of that went to Collier’s Commercial Services, which operated their HVAC and fireplace business there for 31 years. The business relocated to 2635 N. Shelby Drive, Warsaw, to better accommodate their growing business needs.
SiteWorx was contracted to demolish the building at a cost of $21,875. They began their work last week.
The Winona Town Council’s interest in the property – and demolition of it – makes way for the construction of a roundabout to access Winona Avenue, Argonne Road, Kings Highway and Park Avenue. Construction of the roundabout is expected to begin in 2022.
Town Manager Craig Allebach said for now, the town plans to use the property as greenspace.
