Jo Kistner has got it about right. This big mob of folks using the trail best turn back to Ottawa or spend another $500,000 to get them around U.S. 54.
As for the looks of West Madison Street, our best bet is to plant many trees and shrubs to try to hide the eyesores.
Maybe someone can see some vision here. Maybe.
