Maple Street carries New Lenox traffic past storefronts, church lots and old shade trees, and every property along it shows its upkeep at a glance. Cousins Landscaping holds that standard on the places it tends — mowing, trimming, edging, and seasonal cleanups when the growing season winds down. In winter the same trucks turn to plowing driveways, clearing walkways and salting where the afternoon melt refreezes overnight. Illinois cold has a habit of arriving on a Tuesday with no warning at all. A property that is ready for it barely notices.
