Genesee Street Flowers... - Grover - 07-07-2009
I'd like to commend the Waukegan Public Works employees who have done such a tremendous job in the beautification of Genesee Street, from Grand to Belvidere Street (and also Sheridan Road!)
The hanging baskets & planters on the ground are tremendous and add so much to our classic downtown street! We truly have a "Jerry Baker" working for the city of Waukegan...where did this person learn to design such lovely public planters? Wonder job!
I've heard through the grapevine though that the planters in front of Rep. Eddie Washington's Office were vandalized/stolen...I think the plants were literally pulled out and taken to someone's back yard. WTF?!
Please all...if you agree with me that the downton area looks tremendous b/c of these plantings, add to this post! The dedicated "orange shirted" men should hear our kudos...I believe some of them follow these posts. :lol:
Thanks again Waukegan Public Works for another project well done.
