Clawson's forthcoming Woodpile BBQ Shack is ready to buildout. Partners Scott Moloney (Treat Dreams) and Zac Idzikowski have finalized designs that will give the shuttered A&W stand a rustic look. Julie Rudziensky, a College of Creative Studies student, created the carry-out restaurant's renderings, which feature patio seating, lots of barn wood, and a corrugated steel awning.

"The final product will be very consistent with the renderings," says Moloney adding that they plan to pull permits for the building next week. In the meantime, barbecue enthusiasts can preview Woodpile's ‘cue at the Pig & Whiskey in Ferndale July 17-19. Woodpile BBQ Shack is aiming for a late-summer opening. Check out the renderings below.
