Decisions loom on Kentucky Derby details

It's odd to say it in August but it's almost Kentucky Derby time. The big race, which was rescheduled from May to September because of the coronavirus outbreak, is now just about a month away. We were told a while back that it would be run with fans in attendance but we're starting to wonder about that now that coronavirus cases have spiked. We discuss the prospects this week on the Access Louisville podcast.With just a few weeks to go a lot of details still need to be hashed out, including how many fans will be there. At this point we know that up to 24,000 could be in the infield with a still undetermined number in the stands. As usual we don't just talk about one topic on this week's show. We discuss a new "glamping" ground that's opening soon in Kentucky. Reporter Marty Finley gives us an update on a few big commercial real estate projects that are in the works around town — one in the medical district and another near Ballard High School. And finally we chat a little bit about a special feature we just finished up called Corridors of Opportunity: West Louisville.
