He has photos of the Legend sign and the shelter there, with him in his army uniform. He memorized the poem when he was there...and he can still say it from memory (at age 93).

Not to mention, as Sarah Okey said that it could easily be incorperated into their so called "vision". I have heard many different stories about how the new road is going to destroy downtown but that is no reason to help it along. I would like to see the well become one of the many reasons a tourist or whoever would want to make the detour into town. I have been all over this world and there has been no place as of yet that has made such an impression on me as Wickenburg. Although I was born and raised here in Kentucky, Wickenburg will always be my second home.

Would be much better to incorporate it into their "modernization" of the site....and yes, it can be done. There is always a way, just takes someone to look for it. Neat site...enjoyed all your before and after pictures. What a great shame to tear it down, real or not.
