TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WTXL) - A long awaited development in Cascades Park is on it's way to a grand opening.

On Wednesday, the Tallahassee City Commission heard updates from the property manager about the construction of The Edison restaurant.

Permits are now approved and the developer expects construction to start by the end of the month, pending the acceptance of a construction bid and financing approval.

The construction is expected to last 150 days.

Taking over the former electric building, the name of the restaurant is paying homage to Thomas Edison, inventor of many items including the long lasting light bulb.

The owners say the restaurant, expected to open this Fall, will have an upscale feel, featuring southern dishes on the menu.
