Preparatory demolition work has begun at Marquette Park's well-loved Father Marquette Memorial. Untended landscaping has been removed, stone landscape edging has been stored on-site, and structurally unsound walls have been removed from the base and plinth. With a little tunnel vision, the good Father has never looked better.
