What Do You Think Should Fill This Empty Storefront?

The sign outside tells us what it used to be, but what should it be in the future?

In 1885, Joseph Turk founded Turk Furniture and opened the first store in downtown Joliet.

Although the original location was across the street from where the empty storefront is now and the current location of the actual store is behind the Louis Joliet Mall, the building that held the store between 1900 and 2002 is empty.

So, without a lengthy discussion of what city planners and economic development experts want to put there, what do you, Patch readers, think we should see in that space?
