North of Grand Rapids the land drops toward the Grand River, and Comstock Park spends its mornings in the low silver light coming off that water. All American Landscape Management works the river-flat yards and the terraced lots above West River Drive, mowing lines straight enough to read from the street and cutting edges that hold their shape all week. Summer here is long grass and longer evenings, and the crew keeps ahead of it — clipping, trimming, hauling the season away in tidy loads. Then the year turns, the valley fills with lake-effect white, and the same trucks come back with plows to open a driveway before the first commuter reaches the highway. It is plain work with a plain result: a yard that looks cared for, and a path to the door no matter what fell overnight.
