The natural environment behind the Northwood Commons shopping plaza.
“This project is an example of how the goods and services that are part of a community can work within a sensitive Florida environment and even promote the wildlife ecology around it.â€
Mayor Steingold went on to explain how Monroe worked with SWFWMD, environmentalists and tenants of the plaza, specifically Wild Birds Unlimited, to improve and showcase the natural habitat as well as the businesses located on the property….
After receiving their signs and taking photos with the mayor, Monroe spoke briefly about receiving the award.
“It was a privilege to first, 29 years ago, develop Northwood Commons, and I’m probably the only person you’ll ever meet in your life who was then appointed by a court to come back and fix it,†Monroe said of his history with the plaza located at the southeast corner of McMullen Booth and Enterprise Roads.
“I was able to get a few things right that I got wrong the first time,†he added, to much applause and laughter.
