Today, we celebrate the birthday of Charles Brewer, the visionary founder of Las Catalinas.
A pioneer of New Urbanism, Charles imagined a place where people could lead healthier, happier, and more connected lives. Inspired by his passion for fostering community and his belief in the benefits of walkable environments, he brought this dream to life back in 2006.
Charles’s journey from founder of MindSpring, a successful internet service provider, to creating this car-free beach town demonstrates his innovative spirit and commitment to improving quality of life.
As we celebrate Charles’s legacy, we’re reminded of how his dream has shaped a thriving town cherished by residents and visitors alike.
Happy birthday, Charles, and thank you for inspiring us all!
