Join us as we sit down with Chad Walker, owner and pioneer of the Warehouse Block, as he shares the remarkable journey of transforming this once-industrial hub into a vibrant community space. Discover how his father, Randy, a visionary commercial electrician, spearheaded the area's revitalization, blending historical preservation with modern-day retail, breweries, and restaurants. Chad takes us through time, recounting the evolution of the neighborhood and the pivotal role of preserving its unique character.

Later on, the conversation shifts to Kenwick, a neighborhood that has embraced change through thoughtful design and architecture. Learn how a sense of community has flourished amidst diverse aesthetic expressions, aided by initiatives like adaptive reuse programs and accessible parking. We'll explore how Kenwick's appeal skyrocketed during the pandemic, and discuss the critical role of public spaces in fostering neighborly connections.

And of course, we weren't letting Chad get away without some details about himself. Listen as he recounts the joys (?) and quirks of farm life, local food markets, and the entrepreneurial spirit in the Lexington scene. From mischievous goats to accessing fresh produce in this area, he highlights the importance of sustainability and community support.
