Parts of Wacker Drive Closed

  The closing of parts of Wacker Drive has started this morning.  There were baracades and fences going up around the intersections of Washington and Lake.  Also, the piece of Wacker Drive between Lake and Washington has been turned from a one-way street into a two-way street.  On the news this morning, there were jokes that Wacker could be under construction for the next couple of years.  With rush hour just beginning this morning, hopefully drivers are awake enough after this holiday weekend to realize that they're going to have to make some detours around their normal route.
