Removing the neon tubes and lightbulbs from the old Kiddieland Amusement Park sign. Melrose Park Illinois. Thursday, December 31st 2009.

Kiddieland Amusement Park. Melrose Park Illinois. Thursday, December 31st 2009.

I was passing by the old site of Chicago's kiddieland Amusement Park in near northwest suburban Melrose Park Illinois earlier today around 10:00 AM this morning.

Kiddieland Amusement Park closed for good on Sunday, September 27th 2009 after 81 years in operation. Seen here is a crew from D.M.D Demolition Contractors removing the neon tubes and lightbulbs from the old sign.

Kiddieland's closing was a sad memory for many local Chicagoans in 2009.
