Timeless for a Vintage Year: 1927, Modern Times.

From the 19th Century and 20th Century To The 21st Century.





1927 was a vintage year for memorable, auspicious events and dates to remember…



The year 1927 coincides with the construction of the Lombard Brick Bungalow at 502 S. Westmore Avenue and Washington Blvd. , in time for the Lilac Festival at Lilacia Park in the Village of Lombard , Du Page County, Illinois, USA. During 1927, Lombard lived through a building contracts boom for community development, expansion and growth.



During 1927, “the Grandaddies Sol Kogen and Edgar Miller in Old Town , renewed their friendship from the School of the Art Institute and joined efforts in rehabbing old buildings with recyclable materials, to be used as studios”—according to Dennis Rodkin, Chicago Reader, in the Nest Issue, “ Chicago architecture was booming in 1927.” The original Carl Street Studios were erected in 1927 and bears Sol Kogen’s name at 155 W. Carl Street , know today as Burton Place in Chicago , Illinois , USA .[1]



Eighty-one years ago establishes a milestone for the Modernist style of architecture featuring Art Deco, Nouveau Art, stained glass windows, glass etchings, beveled and leaded glass, in the Italianate style, as well as mosaics, frescoes, and architectural interior designs.



In 1927, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences was founded.



The telegraph and the telephone were used for “speedy communications”.[2]



During March 19, 1927, the Village of Lombard issued new building permits in demand for the great expansion and growth of Babcock’s Grove, since 1833, when Ralph and Morgan Babcock traveled west of Chicago to secure land for the Church Deacon, Winslow Churchill and his family, in Du Page County, Illinois, USA.[3]



In 1869, Babcock’s Grove was incorporated when Josiah P. Lombard, one of the village’s main landowners, lent his name to the new municipality, known today as the Village of Lombard , according to town historian Jean Van Rensselar.



At the turn-of-the-century, the Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow at 502 S. Westmore Avenue and Washington Blvd. was owned by the Ahrens Family as a subdivision of part of the block “A” in Robertson’s Westmore, according to the Plat recorded June 1st, 1922 by the Du Page County Recorder of Deeds Office. Both Mary Ahrens and Emil Ahrens lived at this Lombard Historic Brick home during 1929 and 1930, according to property records.



Warranty Deed in Trust, R75-64744[4], Recorded in Du Page County , 1975 Nov 20 PM12:30



This indenture witnesseth, that the Grantor Lucille Hornbeck, a.k.a. Lucille A. Hornbeck, a widow and not since remarried, of the County of Du Page and State of Illinois for and in consideration of the sum of Ten and 0/100 dollars, $10.00, in hand paid, and of other good and valuable considerations, receipt of which, hereby, is duly acknowledged to Convey and Warrant unto La Grange State Bank, a banking corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Illinois, s Trustee under the provisions of a certain Trust agreement, dated the 8th day of November 1975 and known as Trust Number 2834, the following described real estate in the County of Du Page and State of Illinois, to wit:

Parcel 1: Lot eighty (80) in Robertson’s Westmore, a subdivision of part of the West half of the South West quarter of Section nine (9), Township thirty-nine (30) North, Range eleven (11) East of the Third Principal Meridian, lying South of the right of way line of the Chicago Aurora and Elgin Railroad Company, according to the Plat thereof recorded June 1st 1922, as document 15681, in Du Page County, Illinois.

Parcel 2: Lot A in Washington Manor being a Subdivision of part of Block “A” in Robertson’s Westmore, a Subdivision of that part of the West half of the Southwest quarter, lying South of the right of way of the Chicago Aurora and Elgin Railroad, of Section 9, Township 39 North, Range 11, East of the Third Principal Meridian, according to the Plat of said Washington Manor recorded February 17, 1959 as document 912579, and Certificate recorded on April 20, 1959, as Document 919712, in Du Page County, Illinois.

Roberto Hung, 9/2/1996

Gardenia C. Hung/Robert S. Hung, 1998-present

_____________________________________________________



During 1922, when the Ahrens recorded this property deed, a building ordinance was passed in the Village of Lombard , the superintendent of construction was appointed, and the Lombard village board studied zoning ordinance. There were 2,200 acres in Du Page County, subdivided into residential lots—old farms were being subdivided. According to the late Mrs. Steben, my elderly next-door neighbor, “the area was old farm land with horse stables, surrounded by corn fields”.



More petitions for new subdivisions were presented in 1922. At the time, the Lombard trustees forecasted the expansion and uncontrolled growth. There were dirt roads and muddy paths—“some sections were inundated by spring rains”. According to Lillian Budd, Lombard historian, The Lombard News summarized, “…clamoring for water in pipes, while at the same time battling water not in pipes.”[5] Some property owners laid water mains at their own expense, then asked permission to connect with the village water system. The Village of Lombard planned street paving afterwards in 1922.



During March 19, 1927, the Village of Lombard issued new building permits. By June 1927, eight (8) more building permits were issued. At the time, property values in Lombard increased—“one vacant lot more than tripled in value, within one year”.[6]



Colonel William R. Plum, died on April 28, 1927, during Lilac Time. Upon his death, the Estate of Colonel Plum and his wife, Helen M. Plum was bequeathed to the Village of Lombard , for a public park, known today as Lilacia Park , in 2008. The Lombard Park District was established on September 26, 1927 in Du Page County, Illinois, USA[7].



Eighty-six years later, there are still Lombard resident senior citizens living today to celebrate their anniversaries in Lilac Town . Last Friday, August 29, 2008, the Lombard Spectator reported that there is still a need for water main construction on Meyers Road, between 22nd Street and 16th Street for the installation of a new water transmission main on Meyers Road at the York Center—to be completed in two (2) months, according to the Lombard Public Works Department, engineer Frank Kalisik.[8] The Lombard water transmission main is designed for a water booster station to process about 4,000 feet of water, locally. This is not a water main to the Lombard residents’ homes.



The Lombard Spectator was first published in 1927 by Frank T. Jirsa, Jr. On June 16, 1927, the Lilac Town voice became “Devoted to the interests of Lombard—“a Village of Homes ”.[9] This local newspaper brought attention to Lilac Town as the Village of Lombard , founded in 1869.



According to Lombard history[10], the Ahrens Family can be traced back to the German Lutheran brothers Ehler and Friedrich Ahrens, who helped to build Trinity Lutheran Church School , “schulgemeinde”, on Roosevelt Road and Wisconsin street , York Center . On June 15, 1868, the Ahrens brothers joined Jobst Goltermann, Henry and Friedrich Goltermann, and Heinrich Meyer to provide for the Trinity Lutheran Church School and congregation at the York Center , in Babcock’s Grove, before the Village of Lombard was incorporated, in 1869. The original twelve (12) Lutherans who erected Trinity Lutheran Church at Roosevelt and Meyers Road were: three (3) Goltermann brothers, two (2) Ahrens brothers, Fr. Meyer, H. H. Hogrefe, J. Uhlhorn, W. Woltermann , D. Scharlau, F. Schumaker, and H. Niemann.



One hundred and forty years have passed now in 2008 since that fateful day. Now Trinity Lutheran Church and School celebrate the 140th anniversary of serving the Village of Lombard community and the Lutheran congregation at York Center , in Du Page County, Illinois, United States of America.



The Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow is Timeless for a Vintage Year: 1927, Modern Times, from the 19th Century and 20th Century To The 21st Century. This Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow has remained at the corner of Westmore Avenue and Washington Blvd. since the Ahrens Family built the Lombard property in 1927.



Two centuries later, on September 2nd, 1993, Mr. Roberto Hung purchased the Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow from Debra Y. Sekrecki, with an initial down payment of $2,000, as earnest money paid by personal check, added to the total cash payment of $88,000 at a fixed interest rate not to exceed 8.00% per year, amortized over a period of fifteen (15) years. At the time, Debra Y. Sekrecki had two (2) children, a boy and a girl, lived with Stella, the tenant upstairs, and father Adam Sekrecki.



Three years before, on July 11, 1993, Mr. Roberto Hung signed a Standard Residential Sales Contract from the Du Page Association of Realtors in agreement to purchase the Lombard real estate property at 502 S. Westmore Avenue in Lombard , Illinois 60148-3028 , owned by seller Debra Y. Sekrecki. The original closing date was scheduled on September 11, 1993.

Wheaton, from the Chancery Division, Room 2007, in this legal matter, in order to Repair Roofing Damages Caused by the Village of Lombard and the community, within twenty-one, 21, days before Enforcement of the Order of Demolition shall be Stayed until August 26, 2008 for Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow --at 502 S. Westmore-Meyers Road, Lombard, Illinois 60148-3028, USA—upon judgement on Case No. 2007CH1284, on August 4, 2008, signed by Judge Bonnie M. Wheaton, from the Chancery Division, Room 2007, in the 18th Judicial Circuit Court, in Du Page County, Illinois.



Please help me repair the roofing damages and losses owed by the Village of Lombard and the community in Du Page County, to Gardenia C. Hung, on behalf of the late Mr. Roberto Hung. I have not received any monies or compensation for the roofing damages and losses incurred by the Hung Family real estate property. I am aware that monies have been paid by the culprits to repair the roofing damages to the Hung Family, but not given to me, Gardenia C. Hung, rightful owner, and trustee of the Estate of Mr. Roberto Hung.

I have petitioned to repair damages and losses to the Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow before the sale of the real estate property and compensation to the Hung Family. On August 4, 2008, Judge Bonnie M. Wheaton granted that the enforcement of the order of demolition shall be stayed for a period of 21 days, until August 26, 2008, upon presentation of a building permit to repair and abate the violations on the property caused by the Village of Lombard in Du Page County, Illinois, USA.

Once again, I requesting your assistance, and your support, as well as the intervention of the Office of the Attorney General and the U.S. Department of Justice to obtain cash compensation, in order to repair roofing damages and losses caused by the Village of Lombard and the community-at-large in Du Page County. Please help me to secure the required financial community support to repair the roofing damages and sell the real estate property under the Estate of Mr. Roberto Hung Supplemental Health Care Trust and the Hung Family. Thank you for your attention to this matter.



Sincerely Yours,



(Reserved Signature)

Gardenia C. Hung, M.A.

On behalf of the Estate of Mr. Roberto Hung, J.D.

During the tenth (10th) anniversary of the murder of Mr. Roberto Hung which caused his death at Vencor Northlake Hospital and occurred from June 18 through June 25, 1998, Defendants petition to Compel Court Order To Repair the Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow and address legal issues of compensation and restitution for all the damages and losses documented as Exhibit C for Contracts A-1, B-1, and C-1 underwritten by the Zees Group and ZSC Insurance Restoration Services LLC, doing business as http://www.zeesgroup.com Since November 2006, Defendants have been proposing the restoration, renovation, and preservation of the Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow owned by the Hung Family, in opposition to the Verified Complaint for Demolition and for Injunctive Relief, pursuant to legal grounds for “action for inverse condemnation, conversion of real property, consumer service fraud, breach of the fair housing partnership resolution contract, and real estate liability for Lombard old houses”, in DuPage County, Illinois, United States of America.
Now comes Gardenia C. Hung as PRO SE, Lombard resident, legal homeowner, Illinois Notary Public for the County of DuPage, and U.S. citizen, on behalf of the Defendants, to Close Argument with Objections to the Verified Complaint for Demolition and for Injunctive Relief in support of the Defendants’ Motion to Compel Court Order To Repair the Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow, on legal grounds for obstruction of justice, malicious prosecution, abuse of the legal process, and discrimination.
For the record, in November 2006, Defendants proposed to comply with the repair of the Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow before the Plaintiff, as the Village of Lombard, represented by Keith Steiskal from the Bureau of Inspectional Services, and Counsel Howard C. Jablecki from the Law Firm of Klein, Thorpe and Jenkins, Ltd. filed the Verified Complaint for Demolition and for Injunctive Relief on May 23, 2007.
The Village of Lombard et al., as Plaintiff, has been negligent in resolving existing issues for restoration, renovation, and preservation of the Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow owned by Gardenia C. Hung and Robert S. Hung as Trustees for the Trust Agreement designated as Roberto Hung Supplemental Care Trust, et al., following damages and losses caused by unauthorized access entry by service operators, trespassers, the neighbors John and Eva Carpenter, their sons and associates, as well as others in the community-at-large in the Village of Lombard, Du Page County, Illinois.
Plaintiff has breached the duty to service, repair, restore, and renovate the distressed real estate property damaged by the Lombard Police Department, SBC Telephone Company for Illinois/Indiana, Cable Installers, John and Eva Carpenter, and other operatives during the course of service at 502 S. Westmore-Meyers Road at the corner of Washington Blvd., in Lombard.
All the existing damages and losses to the Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow have taken place specifically during 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2008. For the last four (4) years, Gardenia C. Hung and Family have been reporting the bursting of the plumbing pipe fixtures due to ungauged water pressure, unchecked by the Village of Lombard Water Service Department, and the roofing damages caused by unauthorized service operators, TV cable installers, SBC Telephone Company, the Lombard Police Department, etc.
Plaintiff as the Village of Lombard is directly liable for all the damages and losses caused to the Hung Family real estate property which is subject for repair, compensation, and restitution at a fair market value like other real estate property in DuPage County, Illinois, United States of America.
For the last four (4) years the Village of Lombard has been negligent in responding to Gardenia C. Hung’s complaints about unauthorized access entries by the Lombard Police Department, trespassing, vandalism, intruders, and John and Eva Carpenter’s harassment, annoyances, and public nuisance behavior since they moved next to the subject property and the Hung Family. Please note that John and Eva Carpenter have moved out of the adjacent Dutch Colonial home at 506 S. Westmore-Meyers Road during the last week of May 2008.
Plaintiff is subject and liable for consumer service fraud due to Negligence Per Se and breach of the service duty to repair all the damages and losses incurred by the Hung Family for the Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow since 1993 when Mr. Roberto Hung purchased the same real estate property from Debra Sekrecki and Adam Sekrecki; and since 1996 when Mr. Roberto Hung completed full cash payment with retirement funds for the Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow at Maple Park State Bank in Illinois, USA. Mr. Roberto Hung decided to pay the remaining balance on the Lombard real estate property in full to Maple Park State Bank before the New York Dime Mortgage Company would acquire the real estate accounts and impose “balloon” mortgage rates to the cost of the Lombard real estate property.
For the record, since the Village of Lombard has “defrauded” the real investment purchased by Mr. Roberto Hung during the course of municipal services, Plaintiff (1) owes the Hung Family compensation and the duty to repair in restitution all the damages and losses incurred by Gardenia C. Hung and the Defendants for the distressed Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow; (2) Plaintiff has breached service duty through negligence, obstruction of justice, malicious prosecution, abuse of the legal process, and discrimination; (3) consequently, Plaintiff has caused all the damages and losses incurred by the Hung Family and the distressed Lombard Historic Bungalow since 1993 and through 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2008. Now Gardenia C. Hung is presenting damages and losses in excess of $50,000, totaling $281,830, plus severance payment, financial remedy, and monetary relief for Victims of Crime, due to criminal conversion of the Lombard Historic Brick Bungalow as an access to crime, consumer service fraud, scienter, negligence per se, breach of the duty to service and repair all the damages and losses during the course of the operations by the Lombard Police Department and Du Page County law enforcement agencies, inverse condemnation, and discrimination.
Under the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, “no person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law; nor shall private property shall be taken for public use without just compensation.” The Fifth Amendment recognizes the real estate property rights of individuals and guarantees that the government must provide a fair payment to a person whose property is taken for public use.
The Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution protects Rights and Guaranteed Privileges and Immunities of Citizenship, Due Process, and Equal Protection. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens in the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
WHEREBY, DEFENDANTS ARE CLOSING ARGUMENT WITH OBJECTIONS TO THE VERIFIED COMPLAINT FOR DEMOLITION AND INJUNCTIVE RELIEF IN SUPPORT OF MOTION TO COMPEL ORDER TO REPAIR LOMBARD HISTORIC BRICK BUNGALOW PURSUANT THE CONSTITUTION OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, PREAMBLE, BILL OF RIGHTS, ARTICLE I, SECTION 1, SECTION 2, SECTION 6, SECTION 8.1, SECTION 15, SECTION 18, SECTION 20, SECTION 23, SECTION 24, AND THE FIFTH AND FOURTEENTH AMENDMENTS TO THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ON LEGAL GROUNDS FOR OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE, MALICIOUS PROSECUTION, ABUSE OF THE LEGAL PROCESS, AND DISCRIMINATION.
WHEREFORE, DEFENDANTS, GARDENIA C. HUNG ET AL. PRAY FOR JUSTICE, EQUITY, AND FAIRNESS SO THAT THE MOTION TO COMPEL COURT ORDER TO REPAIR THE LOMBARD HISTORICAL BRICK BUNGALOW, BE SUSTAINED PURSUANT TO THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AND THE CONSTITUTION OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, PREAMBLE, BILL OF RIGHTS, ARTICLE I, SECTION 1, SECTION 2, SECTION 6, SECTION 8.1, SECTION 15, SECTION 18, SECTION 20, SECTION 23, SECTION 24; THE ILLINOIS HOME REPAIR AND REMODELING ACT, ILLINOIS VICTIMS OF CRIME ACT, ILLINOIS HUMAN RIGHTS ACT WITH PROTECTIONS IN HOUSING UNDER THE LAW, HATE CRIMES LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT ENHANCEMENT ACT, U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN RENEWAL ACT, AND FEDERAL TRADE COMMISION ACT , 15 USC § 45 ET SEQ. AND 16 CFR, SUBSEQUENT TO THE ILLINOIS STATUTES FOR CONSUMER SERVICE PROTECTION AGAINST CONSUMER SERVICE FRAUD, DECEPTIVE BUSINESS PRACTICES, AND PROHIBITED BUSINESS PRACTICES, AND THE ILLINOIS EQUAL JUSTICE ACT, 30 ILCS 765/1 ET SEQ.
IN ADDITION, DEFENDANTS PRAY FOR JUST COMPENSATION UNDER THE DOCTRINE OF INVERSE CONDEMNATION, IN THE FORM OF CASH REMEDY AND MONETARY RELIEF FOR RESTITUTION AND INDEMNITY, UNDER THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES AND THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, UNDER GOD.
