Renovations continue

Work is ongoing at the Hotel Solem building downtown Cloquet as part of an extensive renovation that will remake the historic hotel — and former Mexico Lindo restaurant — into market rate apartments over the next 12-18 months. A crane was used earlier this month to replace roofing, while general demolition of the interior is continuing. Asbestos abatement is completed both inside and outside, according to developers C&C Holdings of Cloquet. Want more history on this project? Search for “Hotel Solem” at http://www.pineknotnews.com.
