Rick Barker has long held an interest in a variety of creative arts, gravitating specifically towards physical forms such as sculpture and architecture. As Rick’s career has progressed from a packaging salesman, to founding his own distributor and logistics business, Rick had his first opportunity to design his corporate headquarters at 554 Craghead St. Rick’s attention to detail and demand for high quality paved the way for the birth of The 500 Block of Craghead St. in Danville, VA’s River District. Rick dreams of contributing to the city’s renaissance by bringing the culture embedded into other urban areas to Danville, VA through the vehicle of urban redevelopment.
