Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Momentum is building for a proposal to connect two suburban counties in Maryland with light-rail transit. But many in the Washington region still don’t know what light-rail transit looks like or how it impacts urban and suburban communities. Washington Post columnist and architect Roger K. Lewis joins us to examine light-rail experiments in other cities, and how they’ve affected life in those communities.
