To the Editor:

In June 1998, Del Webb broke ground on Sun City. The vision was to create an environment specifically designed for active seniors. This vision became a powerful sales tool, and seniors from all over purchased homes in Del Webb because of it. Through all of the ups and downs in the real estate market, they stuck with this vision. Fourteen years later, Sun City is pretty well sold out.

Five years ago, as my wife and I were looking to buy a larger home for our growing family, we came across Talamore in Huntley. Like Del Webb, Talamore had a vision to provide an environment catered to a specific demographic – namely, families with children.
