The landowner/developer of the Platypus Pub on Lafayette & 3rd Street has revised the proposed site plan from what was presented at a Neighborhood Meeting in spring 2018. Now the Platypus Pub building would be demolished and the proposal is to build one 7,000 sq. ft. drive-thru building and a parking lot on the corner of Third Street and NE Lafayette.
