Two Rialto Square Sustains Major Water Damage

JOLIET, IL - Dozens of people who work inside Two Rialto Square came to work on Monday morning and found a sickening sight. The building in the 100 block of North Chicago Street, from top to bottom, was flooded after a pipe broke over the weekend. By 10:30 a.m. Monday, five neon green ServPro trucks were parked north of the Rialto Square Theatre and across the street in the city's parking lot. The workers were busy with clean up and damage assessment, going floor to floor.

A sign in capitalized letters was posted on the front entrance door to the office building stating, "Due to a broken pipe the building has sustained water damage. A clean up company has been called. Thank you!"

Shortly after 10 a.m.., Joliet Patch walked through the building and saw extensive water damage in the hallways between the second and fifth floors.

Two Rialto Square is just north of the historic Rialto theater.
