Looks like the remodeling work done on the old Kopies and More building on S Illinois was to make room for an expanded Armed Forces recruiting office, as there's a sign extending across the building front proclaiming "Armed Forces Career Center."
While I'm glad to see something in there, I really wish it had been a retail establishment, as a recruiting center like this will not generate any sales tax revenue for the city, or state for that matter.
On a related note, there's a new awning on the building further south that houses UniversiTees, Kampus Kuts and Book World, a beige overhang that looks made of vinyl replacing the somewhat tattered maroon one.
