ALTON - Eddie Sholar Jr., the owner of Fast Eddie’s Bon Air, one of Alton’s landmark businesses, expressed excitement about the new cannabis dispensary to be located at the former Winnelson Plumbing & Pipe Supply building near his establishment. Sholar, the previous owner of the old Winnelson building, said he sold the building at 1400 Broadway to the new owners of the cannabis dispensary.

EDWARDSVILLE - The former Annie’s Frozen Custard location at 245 S. Buchanan St. in Edwardsville will be the site of a new Carrollton Bank drive-thru later this year. Carrollton Bank Regional President Bill Barlow said the new location will have three drive-thru lanes, two for drive-thru banking service and one for an Automated Teller Machine (ATM). This location will be drive-thru-only with no walk-in service. “Some local real estate investors … knew we were wanting a drive-up facility, and there was no way to do one at our current location there, so we preferably wanted something nearby,” Barlow said. “They secured the site and approached us to see if that was an acceptable site for us, and we really liked it because it’s in the same block as our main bank there at Park Street. “It’s a lighted intersection with a stoplight and it’s highly visible, so we thought it was a great location.” Demolition of the former
