UPTOWN — Residents can now enjoy their coffee or treats from Everybody's Coffee on its new patio.
The 16-person patio, which is made up of giant Lego-like blocks courtesy of Everblock, opened Tuesday morning at the coffee shop at 935 W. Wilson Ave. The design is the first of its kind, according to Rich Troche, Director of Operations for Everybody's Coffee.
"We're really excited to bring a patio to this Wilson strip right off the beach and the [Wilson] 'L' stop," said Troche.
Everblock Systems "was formed to make it easy for companies and people everywhere to build large-sized objects using a series of universal building blocks." It was conceived to "allow designers, decorators, and inventors everywhere to economically build their dream objects," according to its website.
The dog-friendly patio will open Tuesday, Troche said.
