Description

PennDOT is gearing up to redo the portion of I-95 in Philly that runs from the Ben Franklin Bridge to the Walt Whitman Bridge. But, initial proposals have some neighborhood groups concerned that the highway will take up space currently used for houses and recreation. Host Trenae Nuri talks with Inga Saffron, architecture columnist for The Philadelphia Inquirer, about how the interstate could change and why not everyone is thrilled about a bigger highway.

City Cast Philly is the daily news podcast about the city you love (and maybe sometimes hate?) and the Philadelphians who are working hard every day to make this place better. Each weekday morning, host Trenae Nuri will chat with people all across Philly’s diverse neighborhoods about issues that matter to you. Whether that’s what do I even do on the weekends in this city with endless options, or how do I get the bus to actually stop, or how is this city going to keep our kids safe and educated? City Cast Philly is here for it all. It’s that energetic, informative conversation you might overhear at your neighborhood coffee shop. But with City Cast Philly, you’re always welcome to join in.
