The Balbo Monument: Chicago's Dirty Lil' Secret Chicago Bob 480 subscribers Analytics

One of the most unvisited pieces of public art in Chicago is the Balbo Monument located in Burnham Park, a stone's throw from Soldier Field where the Chicago Bears play football, when they're at home any way...for now any way because they're moving to Arlington Heights in the near future.
Any way, the reason why it's unvisited is because it's controversial; it was named after a fascist Italian politician named Italo Balbo. Not only that, the fascist dictator Benito Mussolini donated it to Chicago for the Italian Pavilion used during the 1933 Century of Progress World's Fair. Not only that, Mussolini was an ally of the notorious Adolph Hitler, and I don't need to tell you what that b*stard did.
