The 8th-annual Naperville Wine Festival begins tomorrow, Friday, Sepetember 17th (4PM – 10PM) and continues through Saturday, September 18th (3PM – 9PM). The festival is located at Naper Settlement, just south of downtown Naperville.
Naperville was settled in 1831 by Joseph Naper and his brother John. The city was incorporated in 1890. Until the early 1970’s, Naperville was considered to be a far-off, rural Chicago suburb consisting mainly of farms and clusters of neighborhood developments.
Clearly, no home in DuPage County is immune to the sour turn the real estate market has taken, not even Naperville homes.
