Host Carol Coletta talks with national public policy experts, economists, business leaders, artists, developers, planners and others on the pulse of city life for a penetrating discussion on urban issues. A recent segment features Bruce Katz, Senior Fellow and Director of the Brookings Urban Center, discussing sprawl, smart growth, and the critical role of infrastructure. The program is based at Memphis Tennessee's WKNO-FM, and is streamed live to the Web, as well as archived for later listening. The next segment, scheduled for 4/21 will focus on Urban Design in America: What is the state of urban design in America today? What are the big projects and burning issues that will shape the way the urban landscape?
