WESTBOROUGH – More than a month after a fire damaged a restaurant and apartment on South Street, cleanup of the site continues.
The back of the building has been fenced off since a fire early on Sunday, June 2, caused heavy damage to the Thai Minal restaurant and an adjoining apartment.
The restaurant will remain closed for the foreseeable future.
On Monday, July 8, the van destroyed in the fire was removed.
Cleanup crews have been working to restore the space that once housed Décor. A plant store, Seed to Stem, is planning to open sometime this fall.
According to owner Virginia Orlando, this will be the second location for the store, which is based in Worcester.
“We are looking forward to expanding in Westborough,” she said.
Décor moved to the Boroughs Collective on East Main Street just before the fire.
The fire remains under investigation.
