Graceland is a wide street it narrows down people have used ing. Avenue, just south of the C&N W Ry. tracks . Just south of the Webford Avenue corner to a bottle -neck. The result has been that the parkway and even the sidewalk for paark- 1 believe this to be a hazard; in fact, there have, been many close calls between automobiles and pedestrians at or near the corner. 1 believe a street widening project here would be very much in order. It would provide parking space and reduce the danger of running into a bottle -neck and over a high curb as has been the casei 1 am offering this suggestion for what believe to be the good of the community. The people of Des Plaines, I am sure, will greatly appreciate such an improvement.
