Good will be a park to be enjoyed by all now. Great extension for biking, blading, jogging etc...maybe another Buckingham.

Beautiful!..dialog on this subject has been going on for years now ... way to long. Most want it as a park. Huraaaaah!

Plenty of small airports available in the western suburbs.
Plus we don't need any small planes targeting those civilians on the streets downtown rush-hour. It is a threat after 9/11.

Just my opinion. Sorry.

Suppose Mayor Daley thought Buckingham Fountain should be replaced by a statue of his late mother. Would he have the authority to simply order some bulldozers to crunch the old fountain and have his statute built?

According to the article, the demolition costs were well over $100,000. Does Mayor Daley have the authority to spend such sums of taxpayer money on a whim?
