A major remodeling project at the Burger King in Oakdale's Bergen Plaza is complete and the dining room at the restaurant has reopened, its project manager said.
Work on the restaurant began two weeks ago and included gutting the inside and installing new contemporary fixtures, ceiling and floors. It also included remodeling bathrooms to meet standards of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
"It was built in the early 1980s and has not been touched since," said Corey Schmitt of Krech, O'Brien, Mueller and Associates, the company doing the work.
The parking lot was also given a redo, and the exterior of the building at 7051 N. 10th St. was given a facelift and relandscaped.
The drive-through has remained open during construction.
Krech, O'Brien, Mueller and Associates also did a similar update to the Burger King in White Bear Lake earlier this summer.
Women's boutique to open A boutique that specializes in casual, career and special-occasion attire for women will open its second metro area location this fall in the Woodbury Lakes shopping center, store owner Susie Peterson said. The store will carry "unique and different" merchandise that appeals to a wide range of age groups, Peterson said.
Peterson opened her first Suzetra in 2011 at 50th Street and France Avenue S. in Edina. She will open the 1,262-square-foot Woodbury location sometime in September. Woodbury Lakes is at 9020 Hudson Road.
