The Last Of Its Kind In Downtown Des Plaines
|
Once one of many Form 109s is the last one standing since the changeover about 20 years ago. Hopefully, they left it up for posteritys sake (it's still in service) and have no plans to remove it. Time will tell.

The last time I visited downtown Des Plaines was in around 1996/97.
There is one fixture I am curious about, but I haven't been able to remember where it was...but it was sorta old looking with alunimum housing (stamped apparently) and is actually a FCO and on a short aluminum pole with tapered arm. It lights up HPS. I have seen those fixtures before but they were all MV. I will need to try to remember...
