On this Season 6, episode #236 of Boroughs and Burbs, we explore the art and economics of creating neighborhoods from the ground up with Brandon Cobb of HBG Capital. From overlooked corridors to emerging urban districts, Brandon shares how developers identify opportunity before the market sees it. We discuss placemaking, adaptive growth, infrastructure, retail strategy, and how new neighborhoods attract residents, businesses, and long-term investment. What transforms an area from “up-and-coming” into a destination? How do developers balance vision, risk, and community impact? Whether it's mixed-use development, housing demand, or the psychology behind where people want to live, this episode offers a fascinating look at how entirely new real estate ecosystems are built and why timing matters so much.

This summer, The UpWords Podcast is spotlighting local leaders shaping faith and community life in Madison. Host Dan Johnson sits down with Jon Anderson, founder and executive director of Collaboration Project, to talk about what happens when churches stop working in silos and start loving their neighborhoods together. Jon traces the winding path from twenty years of local pastoral ministry to launching a nonprofit he once swore he'd never start, shares how COVID-19 and the murder of George Floyd became unexpected catalysts for church collaboration, and unpacks why Collaboration Project now organizes its work around neighborhoods rather than issues or denominations. Along the way, Jon tells the story of a chance lunch conversation that turned into 1,200 free prom dresses for high schoolers, reflects on 25 years of Madison Missions and a decade of the Kingdom Justice Summit, and offers a biblical definition of justice rooted in shalom. He closes with a hope for what Dane County's church could look like ten years from now.ABOUT OUR GUESTJon Anderson — Founder & Executive Director, Collaboration ProjectJon served as a pastor in the Madison area for twenty years before launching the Collaboration Project in 2019. He has a passion for serving the local church and encouraging it as it serves the most vulnerable. Jon has a history of starting programs centered on engaging the church in local service. He helped begin Madison Missions, a local youth service camp that engages hundreds of students every summer. He also co-founded the Kingdom Justice Summit, which annually brings together hundreds of people from dozens of churches around Christianity and justice in our city. RESOURCES & LINKS MENTIONED Collaboration Project — connecting Dane County churches to love their neighborhoods togetherKingdom Justice Summit — annual local gathering exploring biblical justice, hosted at Upper HouseMadison Missions — Collaboration Project's local youth service camp, celebrating its 25th summerBibleProject's "Justice" video — referenced by Jon as a helpful primer on biblical justiceSend us Fan MailCONNECT WITH USSubscribe to The UpWords Podcast wherever you listen to podcasts and visit slbf.org/studio to learn more about our work at the intersection of faith, the academy, and the marketplace.This episode was created by the SLBF STUDIO at Upper House.Produced by Daniel Johnson and Dave ConourEdited by Dave Conour

Newly published research at Georgia State University found that rental properties in historically Black, lower-income neighborhoods are mostly locally owned by absentee landlords in whiter, more affluent neighborhoods. But the rental properties in those more affluent neighborhoods are largely owned by landlords outside of the region and even the state of Georgia. Taylor Shelton, is an associate professor in the department of geosciences and Ryan Pardue, is a doctoral student in the Urban Studies Institute at the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies. Both Shelton and Pardue collaborated on the GSU study and discussed it on this edition of “Closer Look.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Gov. Greg Abbott is calling for a ban on data center construction in rural neighborhoods, according to the Houston Chronicle. Opposition to the facilities is growing because they require large amounts of electricity and water and can be noisy. The governor had previously touted Texas as "the epicenter of AI development." A recent poll by the University of Texas at Austin found that 62% of rural Texans, who vote heavily Republican, support the measure, the paper noted. Seven counties — Hays, Caldwell, Henderson, Hill, Hood, Somervell and Van Zandt — have now called for either a special session or for... Article Link

Participation in official governmental institutions and activities has declined dramatically. Americans are less inclined to express trust in, or cooperate with, political leaders and each other to address society's most pressing problems. In Neighborhoods Matter: How Place and People Affect Political Participation (NYU Press, 2026), Carrie LeVan explores this growing crisis in civic engagement, arguing that where we live—and the people who live around us—may be to blame. Drawing on national surveys, census data, and spatial analysis, LeVan demonstrates how neighborhood design can dramatically impact political participation, including people's desire and ability to vote in local, state, and national elections. She argues that the suburbs, which isolate residents, require driving, and are zoned for single-use, do not provide an effective infrastructure for civic engagement. However, cities, which are often designed to be walkable, more interactive, and are zoned for mixed-use, provide a supportive environment where people and politics can thrive. Ultimately, LeVan underscores how neighborhoods that support interaction, competition, collective action—and even conflict—can support greater civic engagement and political participation. Neighborhoods Matter highlights the connection between politics, people, and place, calling for good suburban and urban design that can support a vibrant and engaging civic life.

This week on Truth to Power, we bring you a community conversation entitled "Notes For Next Time: Surviving Trump and Reviving America." This online event was hosted by the Oberlin Club of Washington, D.C. on April 2nd, 2026 and it featured Oberlin College class of 1965 alumni, Bob Kuttner, co-founder and co-editor of The American Prospect magazine. For Bob and those of his generation, the arc of a lifetime can be described as a period when America made great progress toward social and economic justice, and then watched it get away. Why the great reversal? How did the failure to restore broad prosperity lead to political backlash and the rise of Trump? Moving forward, what lessons might be learned to prevail in winning the arguments and the politics? And how do we make sure there is a next time? Tune in as Bob draws on his five decades at the center of progressive thought and action to share observations and ideas, and reads brief excerpts from his memoir 'Notes for Next Time: Surviving Tyranny, Redeeming America'. He revisits the pivotal moments when different choices could have led to a fairer economy and a stronger democracy, outlines a hopeful path forward, and assess how we may yet survive Trump if we restore decent life prospects for regular people. Robert Kuttner is co-founder and co-editor of The American Prospect magazine and is a Professor in Social Planning and Administration at Brandeis University's Heller School. He was a longtime columnist for Business Week, the Boston Globe, and the Washington Post syndicate. He was a founder of the Economic Policy Institute and serves on its board and executive committee. Bob has authored thirteen books, and his magazine writing, covering the interplay of economics and politics, has appeared in most major publications. His previous positions have included national staff writer on The Washington Post, chief investigator of the US Senate Banking Committee, executive director of President Carter's National Commission on Neighborhoods, and economics editor of The New Republic. Bob earned a BA at Oberlin College in Government and holds an MA from the University of California at Berkeley. He holds honorary doctorates from Oberlin and Swarthmore. Watch the full event at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2G2OHA9cOOU Truth to Power airs every Friday at 9pm, Saturday at 11am, and Sunday at 7pm on Louisville's grassroots, community radio station, Forward Radio 106.5fm WFMP and live streams at https://www.forwardradio.org

This episode was originally published on May 28, 2024. Guests from a successful St. Louis collaboration discuss Legal Services of Eastern Missouri's (LSEM) Neighborhood Advocacy Program on Talk Justice. There are 24,000 vacancies and abandoned properties in St. Louis. LSEM was inspired by Legal Aid of Western Missouri's Adopt-a-Neighborhood program in Kansas City to start their own revitalization project. In 2018, they launched the Neighborhood Advocacy Program to start tackling the legal problems that create lingering neighborhood blight.

Hey Miguel (and friends) — welcome to Atlanta! If you've got World Cup plans, here's a friendly, no-nonsense run-down of how to actually enjoy the city without losing your mind. First: traffic and transport. Do not rent a car. Atlanta traffic is terrible (think worse than LA in spots) and downtown parking/driving is confusing. Plan on using Uber/Lyft to get around — MARTA exists but can be tricky if you're unfamiliar. And please, don't rent an e-scooter unless you want people yelling at you. Neighborhoods are the heart of Atlanta, so pick one (or two) and explore. Little Five Points is great for dive bars, thrift shops, and weirdos; Inman Park and Candler/Decatur offer walkable shops and food; East Atlanta Village and Edgewood Avenue (check out Joystick for an arcade-bar vibe) are fun nights out; Ponce City Market is huge for food and shopping and sits right on the Beltline — a lovely path for a stroll, people-watching, and dogs. For views and golden hour, hit The Clermont Hotel rooftop. For a slightly elevated, ever-changing dining experience, try The Consulate in Midtown — amazing drinks and a rotating menu inspired by different regions. If you want late-night, local, and legendary tacos, try Nancy's Taqueria (delivery-only, late into the night) and for classic Southern-stays-true vibes try Waffle House — it's an essential Atlanta experience. If you're chasing legit international eats, make the trip to Buford Highway — it's a destination for Asian, Latin American and other authentic cuisines. It's a bit of a trek but worth it. Also keep an eye out for pop-ups near the stadium (there's one at Walker & Haynes from a local bar) if you want quick drinks and snacks near the event. Some extra tips: expect world-class soccer fans for Atlanta United (they're predictable and courteous), but Falcons game days can get chaotic with lots of out-of-towners and bad driving. Don't Airbnb your place to random event-goers if you're worried about parties and damage. Oh — and don't call the city “Hotlanta” unless you want to start a riot. Have fun, eat well, and explore neighborhoods rather than camping out downtown. If you want specific recs based on what you like (cheap eats, craft cocktails, late-night snacks), tell me your vibe and I'll narrow it down.

Yet another thing that makes Philadelphia so great is that there are races, rowing competitions, and a random assortment of other special events that happen almost every weekend in the city. But it's gotten more expensive for event organizers to put these events on, and the city's permit process is so hard to navigate. Plus, security costs are reaching $20,000 to $40,000 per event. So organizers scale back, scrap the event, or move it out of the city. Host Trenae Nuri talks with Philly's chief auditor, City Comptroller Christy Brady, about her latest report: A City of Neighborhoods and Celebrations: Report on Special Event Management in Philadelphia. She has ideas for better ways to put on special events and keep them in Philly.  Our newsletter has Philly news & events in your inbox every weekday morning.

Masked protesters burned down houses and torched cars, sending some families fleeing, and others into hiding. Also, local officials in southern Iran say the US has struck a water reservoir there, leaving thousands of people without clean drinking water, as the two countries continue with fraught negotiations.

$2M in San Francisco Buys You WHAT? (A Neighborhood-by-Neighborhood Breakdown)Most people assume San Francisco real estate is just… expensive everywhere. One price, one market, one brutal bidding war. That's completely wrong — and buying into that assumption is how buyers end up in the wrong neighborhood with the wrong product at the wrong price point.Spencer Hsu is a top-producing Silicon Valley real estate agent, a Bay Area native, and one of the top 0.5% real estate teams in the country by volume. In this video, he walks through San Francisco's real estate market tier by tier — $2M to $3M, $3M to $5M, $5M to $10M, and $10M+ — with a clear, practical breakdown of exactly which neighborhoods dominate each range, what the homes actually look like, and why smart buyers choose each pocket of the city.This isn't a generic market overview. It's the neighborhood-level intelligence that takes years of transactions to build.===

Every New York block is its own ecosystem, with different neighbors, restaurants, and unique characteristics. Matt Green spent years walking every block in the city, more than 8,000 miles on foot. His effort was the subject of the documentary, ‘The World Before Your Feet.' Green discusses what makes New York blocks special, and listeners share more about their specific block of the city, and who the "mayor" of their block is.

The Crexi Podcast connects commercial real estate (CRE) professionals with industry insights built for smart decision-making. In each episode, we explore the latest trends, innovations and opportunities shaping commercial real estate, because we believe knowledge should move at the speed of ambition and every conversation should empower professionals to act with greater clarity and confidence.   David Green has leased more than a million square feet of retail space across the New York Metro Area since 2015. Cory Mais joined his team less than a year ago and is already on pace to close 25 deals in his first year. In this episode, they join host Shanti Ryle on what is driving New York retail, why Brooklyn is the market to watch, how David thinks about building a team, and why the best brokers know exactly when not to use AI. Welcome to The Crexi Podcast Introducing David Green and Cory Mais of KSR David's origin story: a summer internship that never ended How KSR grew from 10 brokers to 150 since 2015 From chasing deals to building relationships COVID as the turning point: getting the deal done wasn't enough Cory's background and the cold call that got him hired The week of harassment that became a litmus test for hustle Why New York City is the world's greatest and biggest mall Neighborhoods that got stronger post-COVID: East Village, Upper West Side Why David is most bullish on Brooklyn right now Building a team: culture over resume "If you need to pay rent next month, this is not the right job for you" Ego, accountability, and what David looks for in a new hire Hardest part of year one: time kills deals Easiest surprise: how fast a hot tenant can sign and close West Village on a Wednesday looks like a weekend Green Point: the market David is most focused on right now Landlord-tenant equilibrium, transparency, and smart tenants in 2026 The best deals are when nobody is fully happy What national tenants get wrong about New York City Food and beverage: alcohol down, health and wellness up Pilates is on fire:  five leases out with five new concepts Frozen yogurt is back and nobody saw it coming TI, free rent, and when landlords open checkbooks The 7th Street Burger story: a pandemic listing that became 30 locations AI in retail leasing: marketing and data yes, sourcing no How to spot a ChatGPT email,  and why sending it will cost you Technology that works: lead generation and online presence Cory's LinkedIn strategy and why David lets him handle it Authenticity is the competitive advantage when everyone else goes AI Rapid fire: $50M goes to Brooklyn retail Worst advice: avoid bad news  Pick a lane and go all in; brokers aren't going anywhere   About David Green: David Green is the Executive Managing Director of Retail Leasing at KSR, where he has been a driving force since joining the firm in 2015. Over the course of his career, David has leased more than 1,000,000 square feet of retail space across the New York Metropolitan Area. He brings deep expertise in representing both landlords and tenants, working with national brands including Cotton On, Calzedonia, Intimissimi, Luckin Coffee, and 7th Street Burger, as well as prominent property owners including Ashkenazy Acquisitions, Icon Realty Management, The Moinian Group, Crown Acquisitions, and others. David holds a B.A. in Urban Studies from Hunter College and has been recognized industry-wide, earning accolades including Commercial Observer's 30 Under 30 in 2022, and CREXI Platinum Award in 2022, 2023, and 2024. About Cory Mais: Cory Mais started his career in business brokering, closing several notable deals including a 150-key hotel in Albany and a 20-unit apartment building in Pennsylvania. He transitioned into retail leasing last June and has hit the ground running, already on pace to close 25 deals in his first year. He closed his first deal within his first month, a vintage store relocating to New York, and has not slowed down since. Now working under David Green, Cory is focused on continuing to learn, build relationships, and grow his presence in the retail leasing world.

Acts 10:1-48

Tokyo vs. Paris: Two Completely Different Kinds of Magic Would you rather wander the electric streets of Tokyo or get cozy inside a vintage bookstore in Paris? Tokyo is a sensory overload in the best way possible. It's the kind of place where you don't need a plan—just walking around becomes the experience. You'll find vending machines selling everything from hot meals to mystery items, themed cafés (yes, even hedgehogs), and tiny restaurants that have perfected one dish over decades. Neighborhoods like Akihabara and Shibuya feel like stepping into the future, while places like Shimokitazawa bring a more indie, artsy vibe. Paris, on the other hand, is timeless. It's strolling past the Eiffel Tower at sunset, wandering through the Louvre, or sitting at a café for hours just people-watching. Neighborhoods like Le Marais and the Latin Quarter offer a mix of history, culture, and that effortlessly chic Parisian energy. Travel tip: In cities like these, don't over-plan. Leave room for curiosity—it's where the best moments happen.   NYC vs. Italy: A Food Lover's Dream Would you rather eat your way through New York City or explore the regional flavors of Italy? New York is a global food capital. You can try world-class Korean BBQ, authentic Italian pasta, or fresh seafood—all within a few blocks. It's fast-paced, diverse, and constantly evolving. Italy, though, is an experience in itself. Every region has its own identity—from Neapolitan pizza in Naples to rich ragù in Bologna. Meals aren't rushed; they're meant to be savored. Think multiple courses, local wine, and recipes passed down for generations. Travel tip: In Italy, always order like a local: antipasti, primi, secondi, and dolci. It's not just a meal—it's a ritual. And always order regional dishes—no pizza in Venice!   Rome vs. Bangkok: The Ride Matters Would you rather cruise through Rome on a Vespa or zip through Bangkok in a tuk-tuk? Rome on a Vespa is pure cinematic energy. You're weaving past ancient ruins, stopping for espresso in Trastevere, and catching sunset views from hidden hills. It's chaotic, yes—but it's also unforgettable. Bangkok's tuk-tuks are a whole different kind of thrill. They're fast, a little wild, and the perfect way to bounce between temples, markets, and street food spots. It's less about the destination and more about the ride. Travel tip: In Bangkok, always agree on a price before getting in a tuk-tuk. Trust us on this one.   Rio Carnival vs. Times Square NYE: Expectation vs. Reality Would you rather celebrate Carnival in Rio de Janeiro or New Year's Eve in Times Square? Rio Carnival is vibrant, energetic, and completely immersive. Think music, dancing, elaborate costumes, and nonstop celebration. It's one of the most joyful festivals in the world. Times Square on New Year's Eve… is iconic, but also intense. Massive crowds, long waits, freezing temperatures, and very little personal space. It's one of those “once in a lifetime” experiences—but not necessarily for the right reasons. Travel tip: Sometimes the most famous experiences aren't the most enjoyable. Do your research and decide what kind of vibe you actually want.   Lisbon vs. Barcelona: Hidden Gems or Rooftop Views? Would you rather uncover hidden corners in Lisbon or sip cocktails at rooftop bars in Barcelona? Lisbon is all about discovery. Quiet gardens, tucked-away bookstores, and local neighborhoods full of charm. It rewards slow travel and curiosity. Barcelona brings the energy—especially from above. Rooftop bars offer stunning views of the city, from the Sagrada Familia to the Mediterranean. It's lively, social, and perfect for soaking in the atmosphere. Travel tip: Balance both styles. Plan one to two  “highlight” activities per day, and leave the rest open for exploring.   Final Thoughts: The Best Travel Happens in Between No matter which destinations you choose, the real magic of travel isn't just in the landmarks—it's in the moments you don't plan. It's the café you stumble into. The street you didn't mean to turn down. The conversation with a local that changes your perspective. So next time you're exploring a city, give yourself permission to wander. Because getting a little lost? That's where the best stories begin. And if you're ready to take these ideas even further, this episode is packed with travel tips, cultural insights, and destination inspiration to help you explore beyond the tourist traps and plan a more meaningful trip—definitely one to listen to before your next adventure. See you next Travel Brat Tuesday. Until then, travel deeper, slow down, and don't be afraid to go beyond the obvious.   Listen to the Episode Ready to explore Europe beyond the tourist traps?

1. Claims about U.S. immigration and corruption The U.S. has historically admitted immigrants from countries labeled as “highly corrupt” by Transparency International. Examples mentioned include South Sudan, Somalia, Venezuela, Syria, Libya, Yemen, Afghanistan, among others. Vetting immigrants from these countries is “nearly impossible” due to poor record‑keeping, bribery, and document fraud. 2. Reference to Trump administration policies Donald Trump previously restricted immigration from certain nations via executive orders. These restrictions were due to corruption concerns and an inability to verify documents from those regions. 3. Criticism of the Biden administration The Biden administration continued issuing visas to individuals from these “corrupt” nations, citing specific visa numbers (e.g., Venezuelan admissions). Allowing potentially unvetted migrants into the U.S. 4. Concerns about fraudulent documents Applicants in corrupt nations can obtain fake documents—birth certificates, police records, passports, diplomas—via bribes. This is presented as a major risk to U.S. vetting systems. 5. Political commentary on Democratic leaders Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and Gavin Newsom are criticized for acknowledging migration problems while also condemning Trump’s approach. Democrats are both: admitting migration has become “destabilizing” and simultaneously criticizing U.S. border enforcement agencies. 6. Claims of “chaos” caused by Democratic policies The narrative argues that Democrats created disorder at the border and in U.S. cities. The author asserts Trump is “cleaning up the mess” and that this angers political opponents. 7. Accusations of unfair comparisons to authoritarian regimes Democrats comparing U.S. immigration enforcement agencies to authoritarian “secret police” or Nazi‑like forces.
