The first major step in the $35 million redevelopment of Westgate Village Shopping Center, razing of the east end of the center, closest to Secor Road, is under way. Once demolition is complete, construction will start on a building on that site and on two buildings to parallel Secor. After that, the rest of the current West Toledo center will be leveled and a Costco Wholesale Corp. store will be built.
