They say a driver crashed into a building on N. Farwell and E. Lafayette Place. That building is home to The LaFayette Place cafe, which is now closed.
TMJ4 spoke to the owner, who says there's not enough signage in the area — the business is on the corner of a one-way street and a two-way street. There are also concerns about speeding in the area. The owner says crashes happen often.
