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.

Violent anti-immigrant riots erupted in Belfast in Northern Ireland last night, in response to a viral video showing a stabbing attack perpetrated by a Sudanese national. 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. And, the government of Fiji has rejected a proposed waste incinerator plant that would risk, what they call, growing "waste colonialism."

$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.===

KSR's David Green and Cory Mais on New York retail leasing, why Brooklyn is where the smart money is going, building a team, and why you should never send the ChatGPT email. 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.

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?

Using Woodbury in Moscow, Idaho as a case study, this conversation digs into how one master-planned neighborhood pursues walkability, mixed use, and everyday community life on the edge of a small town. Builder Levi Wintz unpacks the tradeoffs around density, ADUs, financing, and city regulations, and how the push for a coherent plan meets the Strong Towns ethos of incremental change.

In this episode, we're discussing the intersection of technology and infrastructure. Michael talks about the inefficiencies in traffic management, citing the example of a traffic accident that can close a highway for eight hours due to the lack of a clear chain of command. He highlights the existence of drone-based technology that can capture accident scenes in under 30 minutes, but notes that it's not being widely adopted. We explore the consequences of prioritizing efficiency over resilience and the importance of investing in infrastructure that can withstand unexpected events.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today I'm at the table at TechTown with Life Remodeled president and CEO Diallo Smith, along with Norris Howard.  We get into how this Detroit‑based nonprofit is transforming vacant school buildings into "opportunity hubs" that connect entire families to education, jobs, and essential services in their own neighborhoods. Diallo walks us through the rebirth of Durfee Intermediate as the Durfee Innovation Society on the West Side, now home to more than 30 nonprofits and social impact partners, and shares how neighbors themselves shaped which programs moved in. We also talk about Life Remodeled's next big project on the East Side at the former Dominican / Winan Academy campus, including a 700‑seat theater and a planned 26,000‑square‑foot tech education addition with room for everything from esports to advanced training. Along the way, we get into why the future of the Detroit region is fundamentally tied to the future of Detroit's neighborhoods, what thousands of volunteers accomplish in the Six Day Project each year, and why investing in arts, culture, and opportunity on our blocks is really about rebuilding the heart of this region.

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.

In the 1990s, Congress created HOPE VI, a program that demolished old public housing projects and replaced them with more up-to-date ones. But the program went further than just improving public housing buildings. HOPE VI was designed to transform neighborhoods with concentrated poverty into neighborhoods that attracted people with different incomes. Some people who moved to HOPE VI neighborhoods earned too much to qualify for public housing. And some even paid for market-rate housing. The idea was that this would help create new opportunities for the low-income people who lived there and even lift people out of poverty.For years though, there wasn't a clear answer to whether this approach actually succeeded. A new working paper from Raj Chetty and the team at Opportunity Insights finally provides some answers. On today's show: Who really benefits when people living in poverty are more connected to their surrounding communities? Are there lessons from the HOPE VI experiment that could apply to other kinds of policies aimed at fostering upward mobility?More about Opportunity Insights' study and a link to their interactive map here.Pre-order the Planet Money book and get a free gift. / Subscribe to Planet Money+Listen free: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, the NPR app or anywhere you get podcasts.Facebook / Instagram / TikTok / Our weekly Newsletter.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
