Why?
Was she an historic figure? She served only one term. Does she really merit this honor?
Just asking the question.
Byrne, Janie, Byrne!
In Jayne Byrnes’ honor, several feet of snow will transported to the site every mid-January.
Tumbled in that snow will be several lawn chairs, futons, waste cans, traffic cones and sundry other “personal markers” indicative of neighborhood efforts to reserve space during snow storms.
It shall be ART!
What ever happened to naming things after locals who died in service of their country. Used to be the politicians got a plaque and the hero got the honor. Now the hero gets a plaque and the politician takes the honor.
Where the dogs get walked, their poop getting picked up in bags by their owners.
I’m from Chicago. Jane actually lives in the same complex where I have a condo. Chicago is the only city that names landmarks and streets after someone BEFORE they die.
Having lived a couple of blocks from there, this “park” consists of a dozen benches and half a block to WALK THRU for SHOPPERS!!!!! It’s NOT A PARK!!!!! It could be named for JESUS or SATAN and NO ONE would be able to tell you because you go thru it in 15 seconds!!!!
