One of the more high profile construction projects underway within the Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone #2 boundary is nearing completion. During Thursday s virtual regular TIRZ #2 Board of Directors meeting, it was noted the Toot’n Totum Travel Center slated for 7909 E. Interstate 40 is eyeing a tentative March 4 grand opening. We ll definitely keep the board updated as we get more details on what that event will look like, Economic Development Neighborhood Revitalization Manager Emily Koller said in addressing the panel.

A Which Which Specialty Sandwiches is expected to open at The Shoppes at Blu Water Creek at 4600 32nd Ave. S. in Fargo. The restaurant will offer hot sandwiches like the Cheese Burgerwich (featuring thin-sliced sirloin and American cheese), the Brunchwich (gyro-sliced meats and cheese topped with a sunny side-up egg) and the “Wicked,” a sky-scraping sandwich layered with five different meats, three types of cheese, customized toppings and “Which” sauce on a toasted hoagie bun.
