With all the talk and discussion about the Lake Shore Path and the North River extension is anything happening with the "Stone Bridge" project?
Many year ago a bridge was planned, approved, and financed to cross the North Shore Channel, between Lincoln Avenue and Devon, to join the paths on both the east and west sides of the river.
As of now you still need to go out on the street, cross the channel on the narrow street bridges on either Lincoln or Devon.
Following the election of a new alderman in the 50th Ward this bridge was supposed to be re-planned, approved and finance.
Is anything still going on with the project?

The bridge isn't named after him, instead the absence of a bridge is named after him.
When (Or even if ever) it is built I think nobody is going to call it the stone bridge without a few other choice adjectives placed before his name.
At the last Mayor's Bicycle Advisory Council meeting it was estimated that plans could be finalized and construction may start in 2016 and the bridge finished by 2017.
It's a wait but at least it's on the books.
And it may be called the "Stone Bridge" for a long time, by the locals since that name has been in use for a couple of years, at least.
LOADS of irony. POS, indeed.
