The Lighthouse Learning Academy at 312 S. Wall St. in Carbondale has been recognized with a Bright Spot Award from Keep Carbondale Beautiful, a local affiliate of the national nonprofit Keep America Beautiful. The building, which was originally a Captain D’s restaurant and has a nautical-themed exterior, has housed a series of daycare businesses over the last several years. The landscaping around the parking lot includes lilacs and rose bushes that are in bloom from summer through fall.
