Due to structural concerns discovered at the building located at 125 Main St., the sidewalk and metered parking spaces in front the building will be closed for several weeks. Pedestrians should detour at either end of the block and use the south sidewalk along Main Street. Other businesses along this block remain open.
Ames Inspection staff is working with the property owner of 125 Main St. and a structural engineer to determine the scope of concern.
“Because the safety of citizens is our top priority, we are blocking this area off while the structural integrity of the building is verified,” said Sara Van Meeteren, Building Official with the Ames Inspection Division.
