Plans unveiled for JQ Public House restaurant at RiverPark Place
To get the press to meet you on a bare concrete slab on a hot day below a searing sun, you’d better have a good story to tell. Brett Davis did, and a half dozen reporters were rewarded for their half-hour in the simulated...
Chef shuffle! La Coop’s Bobby Benjamin leaves Falls City to open new restaurant

Insider Watch List: The 30 (or so) emerging leaders you should know for 2014
Recently, we realized we hadn’t updated our list of emerging leaders – people you simply must know – since, well, too long. All we can say is, “It’s been a phenomenally busy 18 months.” During that 18 months, we’ve met hundreds of people at...
Opinion: Mary Pat Reagan top GLI candidate, but Trey Grayson doesn’t say ‘no’
Maybe Louisville’s citizens would be better off being proactive rather than allowing bad ideas to be foisted upon us. Back in late 2011, when Joe Reagan departed as GLI CEO, Greater Louisville Inc. hired a recruiting firm— Greensboro, N.C.-based Jorgenson Consulting Inc. — to do a...

Next Insiders Meetup: Double header with restaurant investor Chip Hamm, Metro Mayor Greg Fischer

Greener pastures? Comfy Cow jumps the fence to New Albany
The Flying Cow is headed across the river, taking her funky blackboard and array of premium ice creams to Indiana. (Sorry, thoughts of The Comfy Cow’s ice cream concoctions always send me into flights of childish fantasy.) Comfy Cow, the home-grown inspiration of owners...
PRG real estate summit: Louisville seeing ‘tsunami’ of investment by institutional investors, multi-family developers and retailers
