Colorado has recovered from the Great Recession faster and stronger than many other states.  How did we get here and where are we going?  With major influences from industries such as energy, tourism, aerospace and others, can we sustain this growth?  What about the rest of the nation?  City Club welcomes Alison Felix from the Denver office of the Federal Reserve Bank to provide a review of the 2014 Economic Year and an outlook on 2015.
