Not an Oak Parker but those in oak park who disagree with the park district action here need to issue swift accountability for this. This sort of destruction and ignoring preservationist input is really shocking in 2023.

As a Chicagoan I don't understand how this was decided, or allowed to happen. My first reaction is that this is a permanently destructive attack on any pretense that the Village of Oak Park has to being interested in, or proud of, its historic architecture. Nobody who loves American architecture will accept this shocking brutalisation of one of Oak Park's most conspicuous landmarks.
