AROUND THE LAKES: Historic Geneva diner the focus of Nov. 14 event

A free program on the effort to return Geneva’s historic Patti’s Lakeview Diner will take place Nov. 14 at the Geneva History Museum. Gerry Collins, who bought and restored the diner, is working with officials to bring it back near its original Lake Street location. The diner operated for more than 70 years before closing in 2004 and was later abandoned for 15 years.
