Great Cities

Great Cities is a podcast about the projects shaping the places we call home.

From transformative developments and major infrastructure investments to revitalized downtowns, transit expansions, and bold mixed-use districts, we explore the ideas and initiatives changing communities for the better.

Each episode features conversations with the stakeholders behind the work—developers, city leaders, architects, engineers, planners, and community voices—unpacking not just what’s being built, but why it matters. We go beyond the headlines to understand how projects begin, the challenges they face, and the long-term impact on the people who live, work, and gather there.

If you’ve ever driven past a construction site and wondered, “What’s going on there?”—this is your podcast.

Because great cities don’t happen by accident. They’re imagined, designed, financed, debated, and built—by people who believe their communities deserve more.
