By DAVE FIDLIN Special to The Post OAK CREEK – Construction on Drexel Town Square, the long anticipated mixed-use project on the site of the former Delphi industrial complex, is officially underway. Local and state dignitaries were among the crowd of several hundred people who turned up at a groundbreaking ceremony May 10 to officially kick off the heavy lifting for the development. Drexel Town Square, a public-private development, is aimed at creating something Oak Creek has lacked since its incorporation nearly 60 years ago – an official downtown. The 85-acre site will host Oak Creek's new city hall and public library, in addition to more than 600 apartment units. Also in the DID YOU KNOW?
