Warehousing Reno: How Big Boxes Took Over the Local Landscape

Welcome back to another episode of OFF THE DAIS. If you left Reno in 2015 and returned for the first time in 2022, you perhaps wouldn't recognize it. This week, Jenny takes a deep dive into the growing presence of Reno's warehouse and distribution facilities over the past several years and the impacts they have had on our growing community.

Jenny covers land use issues, compatibility and the infrastructure that is needed to support them, traffic and air quality issues associated with them, and the role they play in our changing economic landscape.

Thank you for listening!
