We began the month of February 2022 with a seismic change for our show. We move to a new studio space at 429 State Street, in the heart of Erie’s downtown renaissance. To mark this major milestone, and to talk all things downtown, was John Persinger, the CEO of the Erie Downtown Development Corporation and John Buchna, the Executive Director of the Erie Downtown Partnership. In our rare, expansive conversation with the two “John’s,” we discussed the hopes and dreams of our civic leaders into creating downtown Erie into an exciting and life-affirming place where its residents can thrive as they live, work and play.
