DESCRIPTION

This parcel is located on the west side of the Village with frontage on the north side of West Dixie Road (Route 136) in the immediate vicinity of where it intersects with historic Route 66, making it an excellent location for attracting Route 66 travelers, particularly with its close vicinity to the Dixie Family Restaurant and Travel Plaza. It is also convenient to travelers on Route 136 as well as Interstate 55, being only a half mile from its northbound and southbound exits as well as two major gas stations with convenience stores, McDonalds and Subway restaurants, and a Super 8 hotel.
