Haas Restaurant Closes After Four Decades in Blue Island
Haas restaurant on the Blue Island street corner shut its doors Friday night after 40 years of operation. Charley Haas and his wife built a local legacy through saloon meals and a modern restaurant tied to the Blue Island Trust & Savings Bank, leaving a will for $20,000 in scholarships. The property, previously run by Carl Edmunds, marks the end of the Haas era as neighbors recall a life of service and community ties.
