The other day, as I was driving down Wilson Avenue in Machesney Park, I happened to look over to my left and I saw a new building going up in the parking lot of the Goodwill.

I asked my boyfriend if he knew what was going up there and he just assumed that the car dealership that sold cars on the same lot might be expanding.

Judging by how the building looks, there is no way it's a car dealership; so I did some investigating...as in I drove in front of the building (that's currently under construction) and hanging from the fence around it is a sign that says, "Dunkin' Donuts Coming Soon."

Yes, yes, y'all, a Dunkin' Donuts is coming to Machesney Park, at the intersection of 251 and Harlem...which just happens to be within walking distance from my house.

The store is expected to open later this month.
