Gary Brieser saw potential in some land along the Des Plaines River, and he turned his vision for the overgrown acreage into a marina community where residents can live their best life on the water.
The Quarry, a 35-lot residential subdivision, was developed by Brieser and his son, Steve on a historic 35-acre site along the west bank of the river.
Growing up in the area, Brieser was familiar with the land that was once the site of a gravel pit. When the quarry shut down, vegetation took over, to the point that the river was no longer visible from the road.
