Face Lift Coming Soon for Schiller Court Walkway

Elmhurst officials are buying land to make the improvements possible.

The walkway at Schiller Court will be improved and widened, thanks to the Elmhurst City Council's decision to spring for a parcel to make it happen.

Officials approved last week the $240,000 purchase of a 700-square-foot property at 128-134 N. York St., according to My Suburban Life.

"According to the majority report out of the Public Works and Buildings Committee, the purpose of the purchase is to create a 'more inviting, aesthetically pleasing walkway,'" the story said. "The additional 4 feet of public property also will allow the city to install a new 8-inch watermain off the existing York Street system."
