Faces of Business: Daniel Navarro
gave me the opportunity to understand my
principles and my ethics. Everything that I
was doing that led to that situation could have
been prevented as a result of me understand-
ing what was truly my nature, which is to be
a man of honor. I think God put me through
that and allowed me to survive that journey
to make me the better man I am today."
Across the street, also on Capitol Avenue
and Main Street, the Republic Restaurant is
in the midst of renovations for its grand open-
ing. Soon, there'll be two new restaurants on
a corner that has not been kind to eateries.
Let the discourse begin. n
Stan Simpson is the principal of Stan Simp-
son Enterprises LLC, a strategic communica-
tions consulting firm. He is also host of "The
Stan Simpson Show," which airs Saturday,
5:30 a.m., on Fox CT or www.fox61.com/stan. Navarro sits inside his new Hartford restaurant on Capitol Avenue in Hartford.
