Village plans two-building hall with sunlit design and green features
Croxton Collaborative and Serena Sturm Architects collaborate with Prisco on a new village hall featuring extra insulation to cut costs and energy efficient light shelves and sensors. The two-story offices and one-story meeting wing sit beside a lake with a surrounding trail, extensive landscaping, and a glass south wall to maximize natural light. The fire department will remain adjacent, while officials study future uses for the old hall.

Goldblatt's friendships endure through decades
A south suburban group of former Goldblatt's staff formed a lifelong bond after the Park Forest store closed in 1981.
