Gilligan's building torn down
As the siding was pulled off, the windows shattered, and the famous lighthouse tower was knocked down, the end of an era for the former Gilligan’s building in Waterville ended Monday. The iconic bar/restaurant on Lake Sakatah was most recently purchased by Casey’s General Store in 2015. After much discussion with the City of Waterville about the building’s fate, an agreement was not reached between the two sides and the building has been subsequently demolished. Casey’s is planning on expanding their local business, which has been in its current location since the early 1980s.
