On the Friday edition of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by FanDuel, host Adam Bittner welcomes Post-Gazette real estate and development reporter Maddy Rubin to get the scoop on preparations by the Steelers and the city of Pittsburgh to serve as hosts for the NFL draft in just under 100 days. What will the physical footprint of the draft look like when spread between the North Shore and Point State Park? What are the taxpayers costs for the event, and how are mayor Corey O'Connor, Gov. Josh Shapiro and city and county officials addressing them? What's the latest on the redevelopment of Market Square and the Cultural District ahead of the event? And how are the hotel and short-term rental markets handling the expected influx of 500,000 to 700,000 fans expected to see names like Fernando Mendoza, Jeremiyah Love and Caleb Downs selected to their next teams? Our duo tackles those questions and more. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
It's a shiny new year, so this month on Unpacked, we're diving into Afar's Where to Go list—24 emerging regions and overlooked locales to explore this year. Like Fort Worth, Texas, a city that blends its cowboy heritage with world-class museums, a thriving food scene, and major developments on the horizon. In this episode, host Aislyn Greene talks with Nora Walsh, a travel writer and podcast host who fell hard for the "Unexpected City." She took line dancing lessons at the world's largest honky-tonk and had a chance sauna encounter that connected her with a community of female entrepreneurs. She digs into the city's incredible museum district, the revitalized Stockyards, and how to get yourself a proper cowboy hat shaped to your head.

At an unexpected juncture in her life, artist Jordana Munk Martin turned to the legacy of her grandmother's trove of textile books. Edith Wyle founded the Craft and Folk Art Museum in Los Angeles in 1973, curating unconventional exhibits and instilling a love of art in her family. Her granddaughter found inspiration and comfort in the books, then opened the library for other artists to explore. That original collection is now the core of Tatter, a nonprofit organization named for soft, worn, well-used textiles. It includes the iconic Tatter Blue Library, an array of classes, a journal, and retail. “We're really a conversation about cloth, housed in a cultural arts organization,” says Jordana. Tatter's educational offerings began with classes in stitching, adding online classes and presentations when in-person learning became unavailable. One longstanding subject is the World Embroidery Series, which has offered detailed instruction in dozens of stitches and introduction to the rich cultural origins. The library invokes the cultural and spiritual connotations of the color blue. In an elegant dark blue–paneled space, the collection includes not only books but also drawers of buttons, a collection of swatches following the stitch patterns in Barbara Walker's knitting treasuries, tools, and textiles. Tatter's holdings now include treasured collections of 12 women: embroidered samplers, thimbles, darners, textiles, tools, and a luxurious assortment of fiber art books and periodicals. The Brooklyn Museum recently transferred 200 objects to Tatter, reflecting the organization's deep and growing Brooklyn roots. Like Tatter, our conversation combines cultural inquiry with human connection. Links Read Jordana's description of the Tatter Blue Library at “The Building of a Library.” (https://tatter.org/the-building-of-a-library/) Fina a list of Tatter's online and in-person classes (https://tatter.org/events/). The third issue of Tatter's journal, entitled Blue (https://tatter.org/issues/issue-3/), is available online. Read updates on the organization's new home (https://tatter.org/230-ashland-place-capital-campaign/) in Brooklyn's Cultural District.
