An intresting piece of art in Berwyn, Illinois (a suburb of Chicago). Completed in 1989, it featured 8 cars on a giant metal stake with a purple [Volkswagon] Beetle on the top. The sculpture gained national [attention] when it was featured in the 1992 film Wayne's World. In 2007 the stripmall/plaza where the Spindle was located decided to tear it down to build a new Walgreen's pharmacy (replacing the already existing one due to the fact it [lacked] a drive-thru), even though there were other multiple locations to put it (they could've just simply made one out of the store's abandoned liqour section). Protests kept the demolition of it at bay for months until May 2, 2008 when the sculpture came down. The Walgreen's was completed in 2009, upsetting many [residents] because the Walgreen's final location did not enroach where the Spindle once stood.
