The $33 million mixed-use building at the southeast corner of North Water Street and East Juneau Avenue Downtown will soon house a new lunch and late night drunk eats stop, the area's fourth Qdoba Mexican Grill. A fifth location is in the works at 803 N. 16th St. on Marquette's campus.
As for the Downtown location, 1150 N. Water St., it's in a development that's helping to reshape Water Street. The 128-room Staybridge Suites extended-stay hotel also has 31 condominiums and 14,000 sq. ft. of retail space on the first floor. It also has two floors of parking.
The Qdoba is slated to open later this summer.
"We are looking to open the Water St. location on Monday, Aug. 25," said Lee Ann Yops, marketing director for the company.
The Marquette University location is expected to open Sept. 10.
