Exciting times are ahead for Roscoe! The village is launching a pair of transformative projects designed to revitalize Main Street and create a bustling commercial corridor that everyone will love.


First up, in just a few weeks, Roscoe will be clearing out a house near the southwest corner of Main and Bridge Streets. In its place, a new multi-use parking lot and public space will emerge. This space aims to provide convenient parking and a welcoming area for community events and gatherings. Imagine a spot where you can park easily, meet friends, or enjoy local events—right in the heart of Roscoe!


But that's not all. This fall, the southeast corner of Main Street and Hodges Run will come alive with a pop-up retail market, thanks to the talented students from Hononegah Community High School’s construction classes. These students will be building 12-by-12-foot retail huts, creating a vibrant market space where you can shop for unique, locally-made products. It's a fantastic way to support local artisans and discover one-of-a-kind items.


These upcoming projects in Roscoe are more than just construction—they're about creating a lively, engaging downtown that encourages people to explore, shop, and connect. Whether you're a resident or a visitor, the revitalized Main Street will offer a more pedestrian-friendly environment and a vibrant community space.


So, get ready to experience a new side of Roscoe. With these exciting developments, Main Street is set to become the beating heart of the village, offering new opportunities for commerce, community, and connection. Roscoe is ready to shine, and we can’t wait for you to be part of it!
