Kapsa Monument Co did a beautiful monument for me and my late husband a few years ago and placed it…read morein a Hillside cemetery. The monument has a vase on each side. Recently one of the vases has become loose. I've tried to reach out to Kapsa a few times. No one ever answers the phone. I've left 3 messages in over a week and half stating my issue and asked for the favor of a reply. I've yet to hear back from Kapsa. This monument wasn't cheap. I've reached out to two other monument companies in the area in the meantime and they are willing to help but say Kapsa should stand behind their business and take care of this. If they can or can't, either way the courtesy of a reply is expected for such an expensive monument. I can't rate them good in the service area as they are non responsive.

Buyer beware. This place is absolutely awful. They will screw you on the contract and they are very…read moredisrespectful. They will intentionally and purposely omit IMPORTANT and KEY things from the contract, and this can screw you in the end. When I caught these items, owner refused to correct them. Here they are: 1.) They verbally said that ALL inscriptions and design are included in the price, but when you get the contract it does not say this, and when you ask the owner to add, he refuses. Don't ever sign the contract unless they clearly write in text that ALL inscriptions and design are included in the headstone price, just like they verbally say. 2.) Draft of the drawing, design, and inscriptions was not attached. How else will you know what the heck you are getting?!?!? Don't accept without this! 3.) Full names of the deceased were omitted. This contract is also combined into the application for the cemetery. Are we just trying to get the cemetery office to guess? 4.) Memorialist didn't sign the cemetery contract on the back, which is required before you can even place any headstone in the cemetery. The cemetery has its own rules which we all have to agree to. We don't own the cemetery. These are all normal procedures for all cemeteries. 5.) Approximate date of delivery was missing. You can't just put a season like spring or summer. The owner was very disrespectful. When trying to resolve this in a calm manner, he talked over me. I tried talking to the owner nicely on the phone, but all he did was hang up on me. Avoid this business, and go to others in the area that will: actually put in writing what they say verbally, are willing to actually fill out a contract completely, and treat you with respect. After all, if you are paying them thousands of dollars for a headstone, I would think that you would at least have the above taken care of. This place is absolutely awful. STAY AWAY.

A lot of monuments are along the Naperville Riverwalk, and this is one of the many. Dick Tracy is a…read moreclassic comic strip character, and he got a statue. It makes you wonder why that was. Because the assistant to the creator lived here. That sounds like not much of a reason, but the statue is nice though. For those interested, there's a story behind it. In the mid 1900s Dick Tracy was a lot more popular. The comic strip was created by Chester Gould, from Woodstock. Dick Locher was from Naperville, and was his assistant a few years, then took over after he retired. There's not a huge connection of Dick Tracy to Naperville, but this was enough for a statue. Have some fun taking pictures in front of it. It's located along the Riverwalk. This is close to the intersection of Water and Webster.

People frequently ask "why is this statue in Naperville?" Well, Dick Locher, the assistant of Dick Tracy's creator Chester Gould, lived in Naperville and drummed up civic interest in it.

Sure, there's not the huge selection of movies that AMC theatres have, but they are so good at getting new highly anticipated flicks. Plus, they have the After Hours Film Society that brings in a wider variety of films for the most dedicated viewers. Lastly, you absolutely cannot beat the prices of tickets and snacks. There are two screens that rotate movies. The seats don't recline with a foot rest, but they are so much better since the remodel. Much more spacious and comfortable. The main theatre also has a stage which expands opportunity at this venue for live performances. Such a great locally owned well-run business.

The seasons bring so many beautiful changes to this place, but the Arb is absolutely phenomenal at continuously expanding its attractions. From rotating art/sculptures, hosting gorgeous weddings, to their children's area, live music, dog days, pop up events, art shows and an awesome gift shop. Even the most anti-outdoors person would enjoy coming here. Parking is ample and the park is huge, spanning 1,700 acres! It took me many years realize how fortunate I was to grow up with this sensational outdoor museum within minutes from my home, after visiting many similar gardens, I can confirm the Arb is certainly a must see experience for nature lovers. There is some amazing history about this place as well. J. Sterling Morton created Arbor Day and he was the father of Joy Morton (founded Morton Salt). Joy made moneeyyyyy and decided he was going to buy land and basically collect trees from all over the world. In 1922, The Morton Arboretum was established with 175 acres and it's SO COOL this place still exists and has blown up to 1,700 acres. BTW there is still a cemetery on site honoring the Morton family.

When a Village Inspector goes to a disabled resident's rental condo at Arbor Park Condos DG (David…read moreB. & Heather) after pictures/responses were submitted to them (dated 2021 to 2023) outlining concerns/responses from Mgr. Kai for owner of unit (who used condensation as an excuse in 2021) & RealManage (who then advised Resident to go through Mgr. only after Resident has been communicating with them requesting STATUS) when the concern only occurs when it rains only to have the Resident be advised by David B. (who has the Mgr. response from 2021) following suit of the Mgr. (Mgr. states he does not have permission to go into the attic) & claiming it is a shower condensation issue when the attic has not been inspected, says something is VERY WRONG! There appears to be a favoritism towards Arbor Park Condos by the Village even when Nora advised the Resident that the Downers Grove Municipal Code and 2015 ICC Property Maintenance Code apply to this building, however, David B./Heather (Heather coming for David B.'s support) appear to want to make it a shower condensation issue due to no soft spots, no falling tiles, no visible wetness on the opposite wall when it only happens when it rains & WITHOUT adequately inspecting the attic above the unit of which they claim to need permission (obtained NONE) when attic access is in front of the door to the Residents unit. There is an HOA1/Board & it appears there is laxity of repair & on enforcement on this Property. Zinsco Circuit Breaker Box was replaced in Resident's unit 05/28/20 without a permit/inspection after loss of Hot Water & according to FOIA 01/2022 no permit was provided in the FOIA response & should have been if one existed. Per CAPPS 05/27/20 it was not the hot water tank but the Zinsco Circuit Breaker Box. Information on Zinsco: "Zinsco panels are unsafe, and we urge homeowners to consider a replacement. Zinsco breakers are known to not trip in the presence of overcurrent or short circuits. Due to the type of aluminum used, Zinsco breakers can melt and fuse to the bus bar, prohibiting the breakers from tripping and can cause house fires." But who wants Code Enforcement enforcing replacement of Circuit Breaker Boxes with a fire potential or enforcing roof leak repairs? Disabled Resident(s) are in need of an accommodating habitable all-electric unit with Owners/Mgrs/HOA/Board/ et al. willing to work with them & do timely repair/maintenance in the areas that need to be addressed correcting the leakages & not having them ignored by all. When it occurred last 07/28/23 raining after hours, David B. was sent an email/pictures inquiring if he could come out & check when active. That did not occur. Resident is feeling as though the Village combined with ARBPK1/Mgr./etc., are working negatively towards disabled Resident(s) as 04/2022 renewal Mgr. claimed Sale of unit after Residents involvement with an overheating busbar 2021 in the main meter cabinet behind another unit's meter causing loss of half of the electricity to all 4 units when it overheated-since corrected in combination with 2021 written requests for accommodations. Is there anyone at Village Level willing to assist? Mayor Bob? Helpful feedback appreciated.

This is definitely the more costly art fair in town, but you will find all kinds of interesting paintings, sculptures, jewelry, fiber art, and more to browse. Saw a few unique things, like moving sculptures from found metal objects, and the really cool "Boxed Music" wooden drums (see video)! I've been some years when it has been beastly hot, and it's on the street so it's pretty punishing; this year wasn't too bad but still pretty toasty. Not a lot for small kids to do, though there were a few kid-oriented activity booths I saw. Dick Blick Art Supplies and the Naperville Art League were also present. Overall, always worth a look for something new, but bring the big bucks.
