NORTH ANDOVER - A North Andover cafe is back open after being destroyed by floods in August of last year. The rains cost the hot spot more than $100,000 in damages.

"Basically, everything was destroyed in here. The water came over the doors once they were shut. It came in through the crevices underneath," remembers Greg Lindsay, owner of Good Day Cafe. "The toy company that moved in a couple of doors down, they had toys floating down the street literally."

The water rushed through High Street flooding the building. Lindsay says the basement was flooded up to the ceiling and into his first-floor restaurant. The damages were so severe that his cafe had to be gutted for repairs. It took five months to get the place restored.
