Future business is on deck

Construction is under way on Hazard Square in downtown Jim Thorpe on a large outdoor dining deck located next to JT's All American Steak & Ale House. The 2,400-square-foot deck will also have an outdoor bar on it and will be the only one of its kind in the downtown area. It is being constructed by Terry's Decks, a subsidiary of Service Team and is expected to be completed in time for the October Fall Foliage Festival.
