Suburb Plans To Raze Entire Downtown And Build A New One
Lake Zurich, IL, plans to create an entirely new downtown district within an existing town after razing the existing one.

The village and a group of developers would buy and raze dozens of buildings and replace them with three- and four-story mixed-use structures designed to give the feel of a quaint resort town."
