🔥 Top Scoops in Louisville, KY

An Emergency Order demolition is scheduled for 1444 S 4th St — a vacant, three-story former residence built in 1880 owned by Dean Tindall — with work planned roughly May 5 through June 5, 2026. Complete Demolition Services is listed as the abatement contractor and will haul about 200 cubic yards of debris daily to WM Outer Loop Landfill. The permit allows regulated asbestos-containing material (RACM) to remain in place during demolition but requires crews to minimize disturbance, keep materials wet, containerize and promptly dispose of debris, and avoid driving tracked vehicles over demolition piles — so expect a careful, wet-and-wrapped teardown rather than a dusty rip-and-run.

Mahogany Fox Spirits Co LLC has applied for an annual alcoholic beverage license to operate a tasting room with a small bottling operation and gift shop at 611 W Main St. The record is open with 13 conditions to clear — including a Certification of Occupancy, notification of the fire official, a 30-day wait confirmation, proof the corporation is in good standing, and a copy of the lease — so it’s a promising spot but still a few steps from opening.

Louisville Gas & Electric Company (applicant Derek Wilkins) plans underground electrical work at 234 E Gray St for owner Norton Properties Inc. The job calls for a single 3' x 60' asphalt cut to install underground electric, with LGE recessing plates and final pavement restoration handled under the LMPW restoration policy, and temporary closures of the northbound and southbound curb lanes (not at the same time). The work is scheduled from 05/04/2026 to 08/07/2026 as a continuation of a prior permit, but crews haven’t started yet—so you might see some short-term curb-lane changes in that stretch.
