Can Bradley Saves The Arbors?
I’m not the superstitious sort, but maybe I shouldn’t have made the Arbors my #13 post on Peoria Landmarks. I noticed the council voted down the rebuilding last week, based on cost. Today’s article sheds light on the subject.
Here’s my win-win solution. Let Bradley, who’s creeping over that way in a big hurry and turning the neighborhood upsidedown, as a neighborly gesture of good-will to the residents of the Arbor District and the entire West bluff, pay or at least help pay the costs to rebuild the structure. In concrete.
The Arbor district is already fighting for survival, with Bradley taking out Maplewood and possibly more, will we look back and realize that when the last remaining Arbor came down, it was the final blow?

It is kind of symbolic that the city won’t repair the arbor in the Arbors, just as they won’t repair and protect the Arbors to save the arbor.
