These days, convenience and regulations often “win” over the sensibilities of using what you have and preserving the good stuff. In this episode, we talk to the maven of the heart of DeLand, Barb Shepherd. Not only is she the editor and publisher of the West Volusia Beacon newspaper, she has also used her vision and zeal to revitalize and re-energize the heartbeat of downtown. Listen to learn about how a single decision over ten years ago made a hundred year old space the social and commercial center of the future.
