Show Notes
Salt Lake Citys Rio Grande Depot faces a new challenge as state lawmakers allocate funds to transfer it to the University of Utah, potentially disrupting the Rio Grande Plans west-side development. The plan includes burying rail lines and revitalizing the depot, but the transfer lacks public input and raises concerns about costs, with estimates reaching up to eight billion dollars. City leaders and activists like Christian Lenhart continue to explore ways to connect the west and east sides, aiming for an economic boom that could transform downtown.
