Saying goodbye to the Des Plaines Oasis

March 17, 2014

Apart from notices at both entrances of the Des Plaines Oasis, there was little indication Sunday that the structure was mere hours away from being closed forever. There were no going-out-of-business sales at the restaurants, the information kiosks were still neatly stuffed with brochures for tourists, and even the claw game shaped like a groovy 1960s Volkswagen Bus was still stocked with plush toys ripe for the picking. Travelers still came and went, stopping by for gas, a quick bite or a restroom break.
