The Taco Bell In Windsor Could Be Coming Back Soon

I started working in Windsor, Colorado back in the fall of 2021.

I know, they could technically be just clearing it out for a whole new business, but if that was the case, wouldn't they start by taking all of the Taco Bell signage off of the building? I'm calling it, Taco Bell will be open again on Main Street at some point this summer. I'm hopeful anyway... Speaking of changes in Windsor, what's up with the Summit?
