We've driven by the "new" Mar's Cheese Castle several times since its remodel (and had been once to the old place) and had remarked that we should stop by, but hadn't.
It is located by Kenosha, about 40 miles south of Milwaukee (not too far north of the Brat Stop). Of course, its biggest draw is that huge and striking Mar's Cheese Castle sign, harkening back to the golden age of signs. No doubt the sign alone draws many folks to the place.
Anyone who knows me knows that I don't like changes to anything. And, they sure did change the Cheese Castle building. AND, THEY CHANGED IT FOR THE BETTER. Before, the building was essentially nondescript, large, but nothing to write home about.
Now, that structure indeed looks like a castle, complete with turrets. All that is missing is a drawbridge and dragons.
Now, They Have An Impressive Building to Go With That Impressive Sign. --RoadDog
RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
