We chat about a couple of apartment developments in the area on this week's Access Louisville podcast. 

But we also discuss why these proposals seem to touch off so much controversy. 

Specifically on the show we talk about two apartment development projects: One in a former school house in the Highlands and another near Highlander Point Shopping Center in Floyds Knobs, Indiana. 

Through the years, we've heard that Southern Indiana is generally friendlier for development. But in this case, the Indiana development is attracting more complaints from residents than the one in Louisville. We get into chatting about why people oppose developments like this — including traffic, density and population growth. 

We move on to some lighter topics after that including some restaurants and retail news. The new Bourbon & Burgers and the PGA Superstore are both opening soon in St. Matthews. 

And we chat about music a bit considering that the iconic Headliners Music Hall is on the market. We also make note of some of the acts on the lineup at Louder than Life this year.
