The City of Maumee’s Ultimate Uptown Project will be further enhanced by the addition of a new restaurant in the former Citizens Bank Building on Conant Street. The new restaurant, which will be a fondue and wine bar, hopes to open its doors by December 2022.
Shawn and Megan McClellan, who own Levi & Lilacs Whiskey Room—also in Maumee—were looking for an additional opportunity and were intrigued by the Ultimate Uptown Project in Maumee. “I think that what Maumee is doing to their Uptown is going to be a terrific attraction to residents and visitors alike. We love the feel of the project and really wanted to be part of it,” stated Megan McClellan.
This design rendering shows a view of Conant Street going south from Dudley Street. Creating a business district that encourages walkability with enhanced landscaping, decorative light- ing and slower traffic is a main component of the proposed plan.
