-- Neighbors along the western edge of Lakeview are talking with Metra about a construction plan they say will destroy their yards.

The Metra tracks are a few feet east of her home. They lie on top of a low wall made of mossy stone masonry with greenery alongside the tracks, and items such as owl decoys mounted atop the stones.
