Many people around Taylorville may have noticed the construction going on at the old lumberyard building on the corner of Market and Clay Streets in Taylorville. Regional Radio News recently spoke with Pamela Moses, the new owner of the location, and found out what’s going on at the site. Moses told Regional Radio News that she bought the building after being tired of seeing it sit vacant for so long, with the intentions of repairing the building for future use. Moses relayed how when the repair work began, workers discovered that the building was in worse shape than previously thought, leading to much more work than was anticipated.

Moses shared how once the work is complete and the building is repaired, the current plan is to divide the location up into several different office spaces for businesses to rent.

There are several potential businesses who have expressed interest in the location so far, with one business already being slated to move into the location once construction is complete.
