No. I've been twice in the last week. There's a normal corral located right outside the main entrance with all of the carts available for the taking.

Re: OFFICIAL - Pennway Point

It was already lit up tonight and looked pretty good. Almost all of the pods are attached as well.

Re: Updated to phpBB 3.3.10

Every time I try to use the full editor or edit a previous post or go to an older thread, I get kicked off and forced to log in (and error out or go in circles before eventually giving up)- anyone else having the same problem?

Re: Seiden's Furs Appears to Be Closing

Business Journal reports that its under contract. Thankfully its the developer that recently did the River Market water department building at 2nd & Main. Should be in great hands if saving can happen.

Reddit is saying there's a demolition permit placed on the building. Searching Compass I didn't find anything from the past few years. Anybody have some free time to go verify?

Re: OFFICIAL - New KCI Terminal

I was also a part of last night, but on the other side- I was on a very delayed flight that didn't board until after midnight. I was generally surprised as to how busy the terminals felt with us that were delayed (around 4 flights total) and at least happy they had us all located at the end by the g...

Re: OFFICIAL - Main Street Streetcar Extension

I wish the Feds and State would provide funding to transit organizations for the installation of more shelters and seating. The lack os seating at most stops is problematic especially when buses are running behind schedule because of driver shortages. Many seniors, and people with medical condition...

Re: NFL Draft

I've been out walking all late morning/early afternoon. It's been great seeing all of the streetcars running and being full before even getting to the Library stop. Car traffic on Main is thankfully very light. Only thing I saw that could be improved for the pedestrian/fan experience would be closin...

Had no idea where to post this- a crane or something hit the pedestrian bridge between the two Marriott towers. Damage was done on the bottom part with a few panels missing/damaged and a few cables hanging over the intersection.

Also important to note that passenger service will end/begin at the Crossroads stops on 19th- so no riding all the way to Union Station.

When I flew out last week the only place I noticed non-pristine flooring would be right alongside the baggage claim carousels, but even those were only scuffed in a few spots.... and quite expected?

Re: NFL Draft

US is fully opening during all this as far as I know. I checked into it since we will be in town this week. You just can't enter from the main front entrance. You have to use the side entrances which is really not a big deal. Good to know. I had even heard, I think on the Rag, that the streetcar wo...

Re: Alternative Energy

I came across one of the first "on pole" EV chargers I've seen in Columbus park heading home from voting. If you remember the city launched this pilot program in 2021, so they should be popping up now.

Re: OFFICIAL - New KCI Terminal

Had my first flight into the terminal. Loved every minute of my time in there and walked away with two thoughts to imo, make it damn near perfect. 1) on the connector between A & B they should make the roof on either side a green roof, or optimally- put up tall glass barriers and some fixed seat...

Re: OFFICIAL - New KCI Terminal

Using the Rate Information Card going from KCI to my home in Volker would cost a minimum of $64.30 plus traffic delay time. Super Shuttle is $47. How is there not a company running a bus or van from the airport to downtown-ish and charging $40? There is a bus to downtown and instead of $40.... it's...
