News From Across Northeast Indiana
Two months after a complete renovation and reopening under new ownership, a fire at the iconic Powers Hamburgers building on Harrison Street in downtown Fort Wayne forced its closure. Less than a week later, the business was up and running in a borrowed food truck on the property and now boasts a second location as well, at the Union Street Market inside the Electric Works.
