133 – University Lake aka Drainage Problem on University

Peoria_Landmark_133.jpg

University near Forrest Hill. Specifically in the auto parts store parking lot facing south, keeping enough distance that I don’t get splashed. As anyone know drives down University with any regularity can tell you, I could put this photo up just about anytime it rains.

As Emtronics said: “Seriously, the city should fix this hazard. For crying out loud, drill a hole so it will drain.”

As my wife said today, rolling her eyes, as I alerted the kids to the fun up ahead and steered to the right for maximum splash effect: “I swear, you’re such a man!”

    This is an easy one, it has been ther for years despite the city’s best efforts to rid itself of this fine lake. It is located on N University, northbound lanes, just before Forrest Hill. Good fishing hole when the traffic is light.
