What is creative place-making? Plus, what it takes to become a judge--and run a courtroom.

We talk with Ilana Lipsett, the founder of FreeSpace in San Francisco about how unused real estate can bring communities--and businesses--together. FreeSpace has become a global phenomenon. Plus Alameda County Superior Court judge Noel Wise joins us. She was appointed to the court by Governor Jerry Brown in November 2014.
