How Cosmopolitan! : A guide to placemaking and gentrification with Athena Mogdam Monuments, Museums & Mojitos

Is the underground neighbourhood you grew up in now becoming a bit trendy and snazzy? If you've had a whiff of gentrification in your lifetime, then this is an episode for you!

We talk placemaking, urban storytelling, community engagement, and gentrification in this week’s podcast episode 🏘🌆🏭🏛🌉🏰 Not only that, but we have our second ever ✨guest✨ in the amazing and talented Athena Mogdam 😍 who shares her experience and expertise with us.

In this episode, we speak about how culture and heritage can define the place it resides in, or better so, represents the people who live in that space. We promise to get you thinking about the space you live in and leave you the pondering thought of how this place is tied into your own identity. 

As always, don't forget your cocktail - this week it is the VERY FITTING cosmopolitan!

Enjoy and be sure to let us know what you think!
