surprised nobody was wearing hardhats…hopefully the politicians that showed up to get their photo op mentioned if the are going to spend some money to fix the monument
A few said they’d been trying but running into roadblocks every step of the way.
I did not see any notice that the event would be held this year – not in West Side Rag nor free west side papers.
