Tony Troppe is known throughout Akron for donning various hats: owner, proprietor, developer, creative director, musician... there’s no easy way to explain exactly what Tony does day-to-day. But on a larger scale, he's a passionate change maker looking to make Greater Akron a bright, asset-filled city via arts and entertainment venues and community spaces, mixed-used developments, and green spaces. In this episode, Tony sits down with Steve to talk about his passion for Akron, his current and planned development projects and his Akron Rising documentary which will release during the city’s bicentennial. And, a little jazz flute to set the vibe!
