🌳✨ For decades, Sacramento restaurateur and community leader Randy Paragary helped shape the Midtown we know today. As a founding member of Midtown Association, he believed in the potential of our neighborhood and helped create places where people could gather, connect, and experience all that Midtown has to offer. 💛

Now, Paragary Pathway will honor his legacy by bringing new light to the neighborhood he helped shape. 🏘️💡 The project will feature ambient LED lighting in the trees along 28th Street and a portion of 29th Street between J and O streets in Midtown Sutter, creating a more welcoming atmosphere for residents, visitors, and everyone who spends time in the neighborhood. 💫

Installation is expected to begin at the end of 2026, with completion anticipated by the end of the first quarter of 2027. 🪏 If you’d like to be a part of carrying his legacy forward, join our fundraising events this year, participate in the new adopt-a-tree program, and click the link in our bio to learn more! 🔗

Through Paragary Pathway, we’re celebrating not only the places Randy helped create, but also his vision for a Midtown where community, connection and possibility continue to thrive. 🥰
