Yet another Chicago landmark is gone. The famous Car Kebab in Berwyn, featured in the movie Wayne’s World, is no more as of last night. The Sun-Times has a video of the demolition in their story about it. The Car Kebab was taken down to make room for a new Walgreen’s. Isn’t that always the way? Landmarks across the country are demolished to make way for a Walgreen’s.
