Initial plans were filed with the city of Fargo last week for the footings, foundation and site work for a new Dairy Queen restaurant at 5131 Prosperity Way S., which is just north of 52nd Avenue South and a few blocks east of Interstate 29.

Early plans were entered into the city's plan routing system Nov. 21 and approved Monday, Nov. 27. According to city records, the one-story building will have a gross floor area of 3,111 square feet.

More details, including a timeline of when the restaurant is expected to open and who owns this location of the soft serve franchise, weren't immediately available.

The new restaurant will join a growing list of Dairy Queens in the community, including a new location at 3234 Sheyenne St. S. in West Fargo that's expected to open soon, according to the company website. That will be the second West Fargo restaurant for the brand, which already has a location at 1110 13th Ave. E.
