Stephen Land works on sidewalk edging along Route 66.
While the Viva Cuba beautification organization has been encouraging individuals and organizations to join the Adopt-A-Street program and clean up the streets of Cuba, one volunteer took the initiative to adopt the historic district along Route 66 on his own.
