Save the Spindle

By Kenneth Rainey. Filed under: OffTopic, TweedBlog.

The Spindle in Berwyn IllinoisThe beloved Spindle in Berwyn, best known to non-Chicagoans from its appearance in the film Wayne’s World, is slated to be torn down to make room for a new Walgreen’s. From SaveTheSpindle.com:

The Plaza is now slated to be redeveloped and the current location of the sculpture is set to be re-purposed for a Walgreens store. Concerned citizens of Berwyn, Illinois are actively seeking to make sure the town does not lose this landmark and looking to work with city officials and the owners of the sculpture to ensure that the Spindle is not only retained, but also preserved and maintained for future generations of residents and visitors alike.
