New Stadium and Road Expansion Projects?

[Cayce Baierski]

I am new to Joliet (and Illinois) and just bought my first duplex in the Cathedral area in December. We were talking to a neighbor of ours and she told us that the city is putting in a new stadium (sounds like it will be near the Cathedral area, but her information was vague). She also told us that the city would be widening Lincoln Hwy/30 right off of Center Street to accommodate more traffic. 

Tried finding information on the City's website to back up her claims - considering we live right off of that road next to St Francis University this could either hurt us or help increase our property values. Wondered if anyone else in Joliet has information on this proposal? 

Also, would love to meet up with any of you for coffee or a drink - maybe we can get a Joliet meetup going next month. Let me know if you'd be interested - I wouldn't mind taking lead on it. Or if there's already something established, I'd love to join!
