ReplyDeleteClick on the website link in the posting - its all there.
Well. Having looked at the website, it leaves more questions than answers. I particularly like the "vote for a name" on the bottom of the page. I think I'll vote for "option 3 to be derminined", although "option 2 to be determined" also has a certain appeal. Sheesh.
ReplyDeleteAlso, can someone explain the function of a "Women's Park" and why we need one? Where's the "Men's Park">
I vote Name 3!
ReplyDeleteWomens Park & Gardens is the existing park on Prairie between 18th and Cullteron. "These gardens join a central fountain and commemorative walkway in gracing a park specifically designed to honor the achievements of owmen significant in Chicago history"
