Boater pushes removal of 59th Street marina in Hyde Park plan
James Desjardins of Hyde Park urges immediate phase out of the 59th Street marina and expansion of Jackson Park harbor facilities. He argues consolidating boating facilities would aid yacht clubs, cut pollution near 63rd Street beach, and reduce costs versus raising the roadway, amid Barton-Aschman plans and public hearings on the Outer Drive route.
