No more Ovaltine, I guess
A few days ago, I posted a blog about the old Ovaltine factory smokestack in Villa Park. Earlier this week, the Village Park Board decided that the cost of maintenance for 10 to 15 year period was not worth the effort. They authorized Lincoln Properties, the owners of the apartment complex and smokestack to begin demolition.

1) Great angle! It's hard to lose a piece of history like this!
ChinaCalling Friday, June 27, 20082) How sad.
girlcarew Friday, June 27, 20083) Dang, that's sad. Cool shot- did you take it?
SallyPants Friday, June 27, 20084) SallyPants, yes.
Bill Friday, June 27, 20085) How sad. Is there no preservation society that will ride in on a white horse and save it?
Leslie Friday, June 27, 20086) At least we will have a beautiful photo of it before then. Alas, it is another victim of the economy and progress.
LGrant Friday, June 27, 20087) That would be cool...the White Horse Preservation Society (WHiPS).
