Ready to Take Down Another Westport Landmark

Another Westport landmark is about to disappear. The Peppermill Restaurant, 1700 Post Road East, which was sold for $3 million to Goodwill Industries in January, will be demolished next week. The family-style restaurant known for its candy cane wallpaper, cavernous dining rooms and reasonably priced sirloins, closed its doors in 2007 after almost 40 years on the site which was a Greyhound bus station in the 1940s.
