Danny Cunniff Fishing Deck and Gazebo Removal

After 30+ years, the time has come to say farewell to what remains of the gazebo and fishing pier at Danny Cunniff’s pond. Once grander in scale, the fishing deck’s pier was removed in 2018, in an effort to prolong the gazebo’s life for a few more years. This extended lifespan has now reached its end and the gazebo and remaining deck has been removed by the Park District.
