Danielle White+FollowGrant Park’s post-Lolla muddy aftermathGrant Park’s famous green lawns have turned into a muddy obstacle course after Lollapalooza’s massive crowds and heavy equipment rolled through. If you’ve strolled by lately, you’ve probably noticed the deep tire tracks and patches of trampled grass—definitely not the park’s usual summer look. The festival organizers are on the hook for repairs, but there’s no word yet on when the park will be back to normal. How do you feel about big events like this transforming public spaces? Should there be stricter rules or faster restoration? #News #GrantPark #Lollapalooza00Share
