The spindle

[Kit]

An intresting piece of art in Berwyn, Illinois (a suburb of Chicago). Completed in 1989, it featured 8 cars on a giant metal stake with a purple Volkswagon Beetle on the top. The sculpture gained national attention when it was featured in the 1992 film Waynes World.
In 2007 the stripmall/plaza where [the Spindle] was located decided to [tear it down] to build a new [Walgreens] pharmacy (replacing the already existing one due to the fact it lacked a drive-thru), even though there were other multiple locations to put it (they couldve just simply made one out of the stores abandoned liqour section). Protests kept the demolition of it at bay for months until May 2, 2008 when the sculpture came down. The Walgreens was completed in 2009, upsetting many residents because the Walgreens final location did not [enroach] where the Spindle once stood.
