Episode 004:
Urban Futures
with Jonathan Bowles
As New York’s small businesses confront the economic fallout from the coronavirus pandemic and the livelihoods of so many are at risk, it’s time to build back better.
We’re talking about building better neighborly relationships – supporting the small businesses and restaurants in our communities, shopping local, being a tourist in our own towns and neighboring regions to preserve the businesses we know and love. Is this the carpe diem moment where we may be able to change the vision for economic development to be more equitable?
This week’s episode features Jonathan Bowles, Executive Director of the Center for an Urban Future, a think tank that serves as a catalyst for smart and sustainable policies to reduce inequality, increase economic mobility, and grow the economy in New York City.
