Pizza Hut to Replace Wings Over Evanston
Emerson Street building will add another option for pizza in the city once zoning administrator approves.

Emerson Street in Evanston is about to swap one party food for another.
An application was received by the city’s director of community development from Pizza Hut last month for the company to occupy the building at 1115 Emerson Street, which had served as Wings Over Evanston until the restaurant unexpectedly closed recently, according to the Daily Northwestern.

“Obviously at that point there had been some sort of conversation between the two restaurants,” Director of Community Development Mark Muenzer told the Daily. “Businesses close all the time for business reasons and for other reasons, and they don’t necessarily inform us.”
Pizza Hut is awaiting approval from the city’s zoning administrator.
