A community flower garden at the Sayre Avenue railroad crossing. Chicago Illinois USA. Saturday, July 16th, 2011., a photo by Eddie from Chicago on Flickr.
A very nice thing that not many think about when it comes to going on location for taking railfan photos, are those sometimes unexpected pleasant surprises one can find.
For all the non railfans who enjoy Eddie's Railfan Page, I spotted this lovely flower garden at of all places...the North Sayre Avenue railroad crossing in Chicago's Mont Clare neighborhood, just a few blocks east of North Harlem Avenue.
This local curbside community flower garden, was plannted and maintained by two local Chicago civic organizations from Chicago's Mont Clare, and adjacent Galewood neighborhood comminities.
This is a lovely example of what local neighborhood civic pride in Chicago can do.
