Since his election to Council in 2011, District 1 Council member Sterling Anderson has made increasing parks and recreation options on the west side one of his defining issues. On this week's podcast, we sit down with the and talk with Anderson about some of the projects he'd like to see the City take on, including sidewalks connecting W.O. Ezell Boulevard to downtown as well as possible park options at the Downtown Airport.
 
Along the way, we also talk about ways to make our area more pedestrian friendly, pointing to the recently completed West Main Streetscaping project as an example of how making room for bicycle and pedestrian traffic is an important way to help our city thrive.
