[Leica] Pedestrian Tunnel

[mark at rabinergroup.com (Mark Rabiner)]

I walked to 3rd Grade in 1959 under Green Bay road @ Vernon Ave in Glencoe a 
North Shore suburb of Chicago in a funky pedestrian tunnel seemingly made 
for kids it was kind of fun. It's filled in now darn it!  It would have been 
a great place to get beat up by "big kids" but I lucked out.  I miss it. And 
I miss Pops who was the crossing guard despite the fact that we were 
crossing in a tunnel.  I suppose he made sure some of the kids didn?t 
chicken out going down into the tunnel and dart into traffic? It was a brick 
staircase going into a hole. No wooden things like in Don's pic here.

    It would be very useful today for pedestrian traffic to avoid the tracks.
    Probably a legal liability to have open and responsible for what happens 
in
    the tunnel.
