Kiddieland demolition to begin for new Costco

Demolition is set to begin today at Kiddieland, the longtime Melrose Park amusement park that was purchased by a Costco to make way for a new store.

Officials from the store chain and the village closed on the deal last week. Melrose Park officials say the new store, scheduled to open in November, will generate about two times the annual tax revenue — $500,000 to $600,000 — that the park brought in.
