That's the idea that Louisville must comes to terms with its place in the world. I'm not going to get into a debate about "tiers" of cities, but at the end of the day, Louisville is materially smaller than man of the places it competes with. This puts it at a big disadvantage. That's why I've said for years that Louisville needs to pursue a quality over quantity strategy and avoid the "keeping up with the Jones's" approach that drives so much development in the city. Instead, focus where Louisville really has the advantage, for example, in its patchwork quilt of high quality neighborhoods. Broken, I heartily agree with one thing.
