CROWN POINT â A new restaurant is looking to open in the former Great Harvest Bread Co. at 204 S. Main St.Â
Sakura, a sushi and hibachi restaurant, is set to move into the location, which owner Guan Yu said he hopes to open by October.Â
Yu appeared Monday before the Crown Point Historic Preservation Commission, requesting to replace awnings and signage on the building, which is in the Courthouse Square Historic District.

He requested to replace the fabric on the current awning on the front facade of the building with a new, black fabric with the restaurant s name and logo.
CROWN POINT â Two buildings around the square will soon have minor exterior improvements made.Â
During a recent Crown Point Historic Preservation Commission meeting via Zoom, commissioners heard from two petitioners seeking approval for exterior projects.Â
The first proposal came from Matt Doran, co-owner of True BBQ & Whiskey Bar at 116. N. Main St., seeking to install exterior up lighting. We re having a hard time. It s just so dark in our corner. We don t have any street lighting like some of the other places do in front, it s just dark, Doran said. Our sign doesn t illuminate. So we re just looking to put those thin, long LED strip lights above our awning to shine upward towards our signage.
