aloc has learned from several reliable sources that federal funds are being sought to study the feasibility of moving central park to a lexington ave. location, and to restore it to pre 1957 cut through dimensions. mayor culliver, jordan the butler(himself a fiduciary and fund raiser, william f. fox jr.(husband of elaine), and historical restoration-renovator and enthusuiast, architect dan d. seckel have had several meetings during the last year. the study has been delayed so that john fernyakyak can complete his purchase of several hundred lexington avenue properties, reportedly the former value city-kroger store on lexington ave., near west cook road.
a secretive mayor culliver suggested that private funds for the study were available. "seckel and fox raised gazillions for funding the ren which won't bring a nickel of added revenue and will double the ren's (short for renovated) utility costs and have a direct pipeline(if you know what i mean) to the statehouse. all muddy thinks about is himself and heading all those committees. naming rights are excepted to bring in a million. of course i'm rooting for it to be named "culliver commemorative commons" hopefully i can get some money from the fat-cat preachers." butch jefferson's comments are not printable.
seckel seeks to replicate the square from a series of photos and films from the 1950s, including the rustic underground restrooms, and all the statues and monuments, including several new ones. "$20 million should do it," seckel commented. "designing, planning, and orchestrating loving restorations are my passion and hustle."
plans are for the current central park to be replaced with a 3 floor parking garage with helicopter- pad. a private bar-health spa is envisioned for city judges and attornies, and favored city hall employees. a covered overhead tram-walkway tunnel(spanning PAW) from the parking garage to city employees("so we wont be hit by cars").
"mansfield lost its soul when the old tokyo health spa closed."
"the mansfield area has trillions in untapped funds, and i know where they all are, or most of them," according to fox.
"i think one plan ahead", said an excited seckel. "a streetcar line connecting area communities would be innovative."
more details will be made available as learned.
