Dang. Never got to skate here. I wouldn't say it's for sure quite yet though, they could just be doing something stuff underground in that one spot or something.

It's funny, that spot looks like it would be interesting to try and figure out some shit on but my local park has THE EXACT SAME THING and I never bother with it.

Are you possibly talking about west dundee skatepark (in west dundee illinois)? They have a gnarly one thats cement.

Ugh. The best trick at that spot was still in the process of being done as well. Fuck.

Nothing will beat AA's backside flip, originality, execution, and shock value, that one takes the cake,

There is 3 tricks still to come out that is up there with the bs flip.

Damn. Any way we can get in on the whole story?

Why do you think it's done? That's pretty clearly repair work, or pipe laying.

This spot is finally crusty enough for Puleo.
secretly waiting in queens for construction workers to put a legit cellar door somewhere close to the bank.

Hope is just maintenance and not the end of such an iconic spot.

Im afraid that small ledge is done forever. Putting in a wheelchair ramp for ADA compliance. The stairs to the west are getting new handrails too. Not good ones tho. The big ledge near the street thats been getting the most action lately will remain. I work for the district and checked out the plans. Not a great day for skating..but at least its not all getting scrapped.

what about the small ones on the wall though, opposite across the walkway to the small one people film on.

The Mariano side? Looks safe. Im going to try and separate the architectural drawings and post em if I can figure it out. I have the entire set of plans on my work google drive, but theres only a few pages for the work out front. The main scope of work is for the Corwin Theater to the southwest. Hold on homies..

I was just thinking the same thing.
It's rad the reach skating has and all the different walks of life that are pulled in by it

so how hard are these things to skate really? they look steep on footage so I can only imagine it's gnarly

Yea it looks like only the main big one is going to be skateable,  you can probably still skate the main one down the stairs and dodge the rail but ehhhh. the wall side one looks chill but that one sorta sucks anyways.

They are steep, the small one that is getting taken out by the handicap ramp is really fun, the other ones are fun to carve but not too easy to get a truck up onto.

Well it seems it'll still be skateable a bit,even after renovations. If anything it just ups the ante for more creativity

Damn I left my bubbler at my parents house
