WAUSAU, WI (WSAU-WAOW) – The iconic umbrellas that hang above Third Street in downtown Wausau are set to go up today.
City crews will shut down Third Street from Washington Street to Jefferson Street on Tuesday and Wednesday to install them.
The road will be closed from 7 am to 10am Tuesday, and 7am. to 2pm on Wednesday.
The umbrellas have been installed every year since 2015, and last year, created the shape of a mask to honor frontline workers battling COVID-19. The umbrellas generally stay up until they’re replaced by holiday decorations.
