The conversations you want to have this year

Downtown Asheville. @overasheville

@overasheville

As we enter 2019, we’re inviting you not only to participate, but to set the agenda for AVLtoday in the new year. We want to plan our content around what you want to talk about. What questions are on your mind? What’s coming up in your conversations about local + regional issues? What ideas do you have about how to make our city even better?

Our goal is to help you be more engaged + entertained about the city you love. So last March, we asked you what you wanted to talk about, and then we dove into your questions, including a 2018 election guide (our top post of the year), the I-26 connector project, and the history of your favorite buildings in downtown Asheville.

We also started some conversations of our own and asked you to tell us your pick for Asheville’s most iconic landmark, what you thought about a bikeshare program in town, and where you’d put Asheville’s first food hall.

Now we’d love to know what conversations you want to have next.

  • What do you want to talk about this year?
  • What can we help find out for you?
  • Want to know how something works?
  • What can we help you understand?
  • What about upcoming developments or construction you’ve seen around town?
  • What don’t you know that you’d like us to investigate?

Join the conversation + fill out this form to help guide us in the new year. And, as always, join in on the ongoing conversation on Instagram, Facebook + Twitter.

We’re so excited to talk about what you want to know, and we’ll be bringing you the answers to your questions, plus our shared ideas + visions, in your inbox every morning.

Cheers to a new year of conversations.
