La Crosse County has received an offer for the vacant Barron
Island property (the former Holiday Inn across from Petibone Park). If you remember the controversy over that
property about a decade ago when they were talking about putting in a casino
and the city overwhelmingly voted it down.
I hope that something good goes in there, something that would add to
the charm of La Crosse, like a Wisconsin Dells type hotel with a water park, it
would be a great draw to the area, they could also add an outdoor
bar/restaurant with a stage and really use the area and showcase the beauty
that is here. There could also be high
end condos built there with access to the River. I for one wonder why some of the land that
sits empty does. I also think with some cleanup
and a developer we could have something nice in the old Mobile site. With a changing of the guard at city hall in
La Crosse what would you like to see the new guard work on getting developed in
La Crosse?
