Paul works hard, is extremely knowledgable about gardening, is a mature and kind man to work with, and extremely trustworthy. This was the first time I've ever even owned a plant, and it's definitely still a work in progress, but nonetheless great job Paul and thank you so much! I included the before and after.

The work that Metro Scapes did on our parkway was very good. They came out on 2 separate years and…read moreI was pleased with the results. However it was exceptionally difficult to get them to actually come out and do the work. I started a couple months in advance (April) requesting an appointment and had to follow-up several times in order for them to actually show up. Last year I finally gave up on them after many appointment requests & no-shows and ended up doing the work myself. They do good work when they show up, but I wouldn't count on them if you need work done by a certain date.

Every park isn't that great while also not being that bad, just average. Heritage Green Park is…read moresuch one. It doesn't have much going on, just green space. For some people, that's all they need though so it's not a bad thing to have. There's lots of room for dogs to run around, and humans to chill and relax. Bare bones park is a description of it, almost. It actually does have some things in it. There's a few benches and paths. Green space is the main thing about it. Lots of it and quite a few trees. As far as playgrounds, there aren't any. The most interesting thing about it is a statue. It's called "Grainne." This was a gift by Galway, a city in Ireland. Chicago has lots of Irish heritage. This is a statue that certainly makes sense. Good park to hang out for a bit. It's nothing really that interesting but it's good to get out. There's a few benches for sitting and a few paths for walking.

I've driven by this park countless times; I used to pass it nearly daily when I had my old job. I'm…read morehonestly not sure I ever noticed it, though, before I stopped at Old St. Pat's this week. It's known as a "passive park", because it has no programming, playground, or any facilities besides some benches. The most notable feature of the park is a large sculpture at the southwest entrance called Grainne, which commemorates the Sister Cities relationship between Chicago and Galway, Ireland. The name is somewhat odd, and was developed by the park's advisory group. It's said to reflect the peoples of various heritage that have called the area home, as it was a gathering place for lots of new immigrants in Chicago. "Green" is in homage to the old-timey town greens that were the original parks. I wandered through simply because I was surprised it was here, but it wasn't much of a park. I liked the sculpture quite a lot. If one lived nearby this would be an ok place to stop if you wanted a minimal amount of green space, but otherwise there are better parks in the city.
