Episode Description from the Publisher

There will be no Museum of Ice Cream in downtown Denver – at least for now. The interactive dairy-themed selfie attraction has become the latest project turned down for support by the Downtown Development Authority. So, what gives? Are the mayor’s big plans for a downtown comeback in peril? Westword Editor-in-Chief Patty Calhoun joins host Bree Davies and producer Paul Karolyi to talk through the bigger picture, plus the lore of personal injury attorney and local celeb Frank Azar and a listener comment about the places to eat if you only had a week left to enjoy the Mile High City.  Paul discussed 5280 Magazine’s profile of Frank Azar.
