A Matter of Place
A Matter of Place with Jeff Siegler is an exploration of the places we shape, and how in turn, those places shape us. The built environment has a tremendous impact on the lives we lead and people's overall health and well-being. It's a topic that receives far too little attention considering the outsize impact our surroundings have on our lives. Episodes will alternate between Jeff's experiences working in the Place Industry and interviews with those people dedicated to improving the conditions of our built environment.
A Matter of Place
Buildings Before Businesses
In this episode, let's get real about urban development and give credit where it's due: building owners. It is important to understand why managing a building is no walk in the park – it's basically running a business. We also need to talk about the overlooked issue of building location and why it's not just about having empty spaces to fill. And we must even take on the myth that every vacant building is fair game. Instead, let's rally behind supporting local developers to breathe life back into our downtown areas. Join me for a no nonsense journey through urban revitalization and a nod to these unsung local heroes.
