At Ashton Gustafson & Associates, we believe that real estate is about more than properties—it's about people, purpose, and place. That belief is at the heart of The Citizen, our seasonal publication that celebrates the beauty, creativity, and character of Central Texas.
We’re thrilled to share that Volume 8 of The Citizen is now live.
In this issue, you’ll find a thoughtful blend of local stories, soulful reflections, and snapshots of what makes life in Waco so compelling—from timeless architecture to freshly tilled gardens, morning rituals to downtown awakenings.
Here’s a taste of what you’ll find inside:
-
A Conversation with Architect Jeff Garnett — We head west to Glen Rose, Texas, where Garnett’s site-specific, minimalist designs speak to the soul of Texas soil.
-
The Garden is the Teacher — A lyrical feature on Amy Gulley’s backyard Eden in Woodway, where pruning and patience reveal deeper truths.
-
The Citizen Soundtrack, Summer 2025 Edition — Curated songs for slow mornings, golden hours, and everything in between.
-
And of course, a personal letter from Ashton, reminding us that being a good neighbor—and a good citizen—starts with presence, listening, and love.
Whether you’ve been following since Volume 1 or are just now discovering The Citizen, this issue is our invitation to pause, look around, and remember: we belong to each other, and we belong to this place.
Pick up a copy at our office, or read it online at AGwaco.com/thecitizen.
As always, thank you for being a part of the story.
Warmly,
The AG Real Estate & Associates Team
