Chad Draper has spent decades building something most developers never think about — a city worth staying in. In this episode of Renewing the City, host Paul Taylor Smith sits down with Chad, founder of the Eulalia Group, to talk about what it really means to be a city builder. From transforming a 1921 Ford dealership into downtown Monroe’s hottest brewery to actively filling gaps his community is missing (like a downtown doctor’s office), Chad’s philosophy is refreshingly simple: be a good neighbor at scale. If you care about your city, your community, or just want to be inspired by someone quietly doing the work — this one’s for you.
