City Cast Salt Lake Ryan Smith v. Abravanel Hall, an Iconic Salt Laker, and Karaoke Recs
Smith Entertainment Group is asking SLC taxpayers for $54 million a year, three city blocks, a heliport, and so much more at tonight’s Salt Lake City Council meeting. Salt Lake Tribune reporter Andy Larsen joins host Ali Vallarta to break down what we already know about the sports and entertainment district proposal. Plus, Ali mourns the potential loss of an iconic Salt Laker and Andy finds two new favorite karaoke bars.
