I hope the new Walgreen's store is worth the loss of character. I'll never know first-hand since there's no reason to go to Berwyn now.PYLBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12995549636385804903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8835775.post-79999196777361800202008-05-04T00:45:00.000-05:002008-05-04T00:45:00.000-05:00Sadly, the Berwyn Spindle was demolished on May 2,...Sadly, the <A HREF="http://duhonly.blogspot.com/2008/05/berwyn-spindle-demolished-under-cover.html" REL="nofollow">Berwyn Spindle was <BR/>demolished</A> on May 2, 2008. <BR/><BR/>Now Berwyn's sole claim to fame is the Son of Svengoulie gag.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07652239314198197998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8835775.post-88042301750340971412008-04-30T20:36:00.000-05:002008-04-30T20:36:00.000-05:00Some people in Chicago real estate have questioned...Some people in Chicago real estate have questioned whether they will even be able to sell the condos in the Spire at the prices they're going for. It had never occurred to me that the buyers could all be from out of town. As ridiculously expensive as the penthouses will be, those should sell.

In fact, Cermak Plaza, where the Berwyn Spire sits, already has a Walgreen's that works just fine.PYLBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12995549636385804903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8835775.post-53374619762751558512008-04-14T13:36:00.000-05:002008-04-14T13:36:00.000-05:00Sadly, I think the Walgreens is defining the chara...Sadly, I think the Walgreens is defining the character of many places.Chris B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08028080487158010693noreply@blogger.com
