What’s Up AVL! This week learn more about the Community Upfit Project

Posted on October 16, 2025 by Kim Miller

What’s Up AVL!

The City of Asheville’s bi-monthly radio show allows the community to take a deep dive with the City of Asheville staff and departments.

You can learn about different departments and what projects are taking place in your community

In this episode of What’s Up, AVL!, host Meredith Friedheim, Communication Specialist, talks with Logan Smith, Media Engagement Coordinator, to take a close look at the Community Space Upfit Project — an exciting initiative helping to transform community spaces around Asheville into flexible, accessible, and tech-ready community hubs.   

Learn how these spaces will support public meetings, neighborhood gatherings, workshops, and hybrid engagement, and how they’re being designed to serve as resilience hubs during emergencies — a vision that took on new urgency after Hurricane Helene.
