Former owner of Preston’s Pharmacy, John Eklund, walks us through the intricate history of the pharmacy, shares the challenges he has encountered along the way, and explains what he thinks should be done on Lee Highway to make it more livable. In his words: “communities become communities, by changing a commercial corridor to make it a mixed use”.
