Heather McGowan encourages communities to incorporate green building standards and to search for ways of funding part of that cost. @babcockranchfl #Sustainable #climate #Resiliency #FLA #Insurance #RiskMitigation #NaturalDisasters #flood #climatechange.
Heather McGowan, the National Association of REALTORS®, said being very intentional about master planning for sustainability & resiliency paid off for Babcock Rach, while surrounding communities built to conventional subdivision standards suffered huge losses from Hurricane Ian.

Life is immersed in heritage & history when one saves an Old Florida House from the wrecking ball. My restored Little Havana Spanish Mission style house turned 100 this year. I spent 2 decades preserving hardwood floors, the stucco facade + unique features. #HistoricPreservation

Life is one of leadership when you have taken your message of Universal Design and a better built environment for People with Disabilities to a combined 100 TV, radio, podcast, online and documentary film programs. #FightAbleism #ADA #UniversalDesign #BetterBuiltEnvironment

Life is that of a storyteller when you cover everything from rock n roll to record setting murders for Ohio’s Greatest Home Newspaper. In more than a decade at the Columbus Dispatch, I won multiple awards and was my editor’s submission for the Pulitzer Prize. #Reporter #NewsPaper

Life is honorable when you move to Miami and soon are working as the senior urban policy advisor to the chair of the Miami City Commission. Your public service includes legacy projects on Calle Ocho, Cuban Memorial Blvd. & all of Little Havana. #Miami #LittleHavana #PublicService

Life is enriching when you created a groundbreaking Universal Design Course at the University of Miami School of Architecture. Especially when you have a B average (from working 50 hour weeks through college) and know design training. #architecture #UniversalDesign #ADA #Mobility

Life is resilient when you left the growth and development beat at an Ohio newspaper…and went on to lead marketing, communications and business development at Miami’s leading urban design, architecture and mobility firms. #storyteller #communications #marketing #BizDevelopment

Life is purposeful when you have rescued more than a dozen feral cats from the streets of Miami’s Little Havana. On my arms is Baby, the soulful Ginger Tabby. I loved him every minute of his leukemia shortened 3 year life. #CatsAreFamily #CatRescue #GingerTabby #AdoptDontShop

Life is gratifying when you have transitioned from being terrified of public speaking to being comfortable in front of an audience of 1,000. I hope that my UniversalDesign and #InclusiveMobility speeches have made life better for #PeopleWithDisabilities #planning #ADA #DEI

Life is colorful when you have exhibited your fine art photography on four continents— and you’re just getting started. I specialize in urban street photography. This is Paris’ Île de la Cité. #streetphotographer #fineArt #paris #urban #VisualArtist #photojournalist #ArtGallery

Life is fulfilling when you get to work on cultural tourism projects in South America, Asia and Europe. It’s also a. It tiring — as a 20 hour workday shows up on my face in Getsemani Cartagena Colombia. #CulturalTourism #WorldTraveler #Colombia #Europe #Asia #SouthAmerica #travel

Life is rewarding when you go to an Uzbek and Turkish restaurant and end up discussing the finer points of plov based on your many visits to Besh Qozon and its 3000 KG cauldrons for Asian Pilaf making. #Uzbekistan #SilkRoad #Plov #WorldTraveler #BeshQozon #Tashkent #Worldcuisine

Life is good when you get to collaborate directly with urban policy and design giants. I have worked with the creators of the New Urbanism and the 15 Minute City — arguably the biggest movements of the 20th & 21st centuries. #planning #urbanDesign #NewUrbanism #15MinuteCity #ADA

Very disappointed that restoration of #NotreDame kept stairs as only means of access for a significant part of the cathedral. Ramped access should have been added. Intentional exclusion of people with disabilities is NOT an element of a historic charm. #UniversalDesign #Ableism

A chilly spring rain and hail storm subside just in time to make way for the golden hour of light in Paris. A low slung boat navigates the Seine toward the restored Notre Dame by Pont St. Michel. #streetphotographer #paris #seine #notreDame #france #travel #photojournalist #photo

On the way from Notre Dame to dinner in St. Michelle then a Left Bank jazz club, this pylon sign caught my eye. The facade is soooo Paris. The St. Severin, for the record, is not a luxury hotel. #paris #streetphotographer #architecture #LeftBank #france #photojournalist #travel
