We've got the Reagan Memorial Tollway, the Kennedy Expressway and Roosevelt University all named after former presidents. But what might they want to name after Barack Obama?
Sure, it's early. Way early. He's just taking his oath of office, so it would be premature to start redoing park signs and school banners. Yet, you can always speculate what suburban sites might one day bear the Barack Obama name.
• Graue Mill? Probably not, but the Oak Brook historic site was a stop on the Underground Railroad.
• Routes 53 and 355? All those threes and fives do get confusing.
• The proposed 53 extension in Lake County? It's been up for debate for decades, so surely you could take some time naming it.
• Lake Arlington? It's not as picturesque as the beaches in Obama's native Hawaii, but it's a nice spot just the same.
• Illinois tollbooths? After all, they too like change.
