Another Broken Metro Parks Promise on Morgan Park?

On April 27, Parks Director Roy Wilson told me that a building contractor had 70 days to complete a new water feature for Morgan Park. Consider these pictures I took of construction today and tell me whether you think they'll be able to finish by Thursday, which I believe is 70 days after April 27.




I'm no engineer, but I'm thinking 3 days to finish is impossible at this point. Assuming they don't meet their deadline, this fountain will be joining Morgan Park's multiply-deferred playground, greenway, and multi-purpose field installations in a string of unrealized promises from Metro Parks.
