The Jewel Box project was the redevelopment of the former “paver lot” in downtown to the beautiful activity lawn and new location for LR Burger. This was a critical project in Duluth’s downtown development plans for the city and is now a crown jewel space for the community — enjoyed by local residents as well as visitors to the city’s lovely downtown area.
