Balbo Monument (Chicago, Illinois)

USA / Illinois / Chicago / Chicago, Illinois
 monument, sculpture

Wonderful spot to practice your Italian. Balbo was a fascist and the monument was a gift from Mussolini to the people of Chicago for their generosity in naming a street in honor of Balbo after the 1933 worlds fair held at Chicago.
Tourist attraction, very nice though.
