Cirilla's and Bazookas!!
Would go nicely next to the Plaza’s new escape room. Lol. Holy crap, the new ownership can’t get here soon enough.

The Country Club Plaza is in trouble. How can Kansas City fix it? Take our survey | Opinion ... So if the action really is moving elsewhere and the Country Club Plaza is at the brink, what can pull it back?

Alright, here we go! One step closer to new ownership: Plaza owners default on $300M loan in new sign of distress https://www.kansascity.com/news/business/article278847049.html That's my biggest fear, that even with the right ideas and city support in hand, the Plaza's owners aren't in financial co...

Re: Plaza move-ins (ongoing)

If only we would have started to be proactive about this 10 years ago when the troubling signs of the decline started to present themselves.

I’m concerned the Plaza is reaching a point of no return.

Re: Plaza move-ins (ongoing)

I'd rather keep the vacant, weed infested gravel lot than build a Dillard's.

Re: Plaza move-ins (ongoing)

Any news on the famous overgrown gravel lot??? Hopefully we aren't barreling toward a Mission Mall 10+ year debacle.

It's been eerily quiet.

Almost sounds like they pulled that idea off the Rag.
Embarrassing.

Re: Plaza move-ins (ongoing)

Someone at corporate contacted me after complaining about Dillard's in a department store group on Facebook. They're still prepping a proposal for a 3-story 180,000 ft2 store on the Nordstrom site, which will come at the cost of the higher-end lines continuing to be offered at the other three store...

Re: Plaza move-ins (ongoing)

Societal changes are responsible for this. People in general don't dress up as much as they used to in the past. Casual clothing has seen the most growth. In addition, people's incomes have not kept pace with inflation for 40 years so fewer and fewer people can afford upscale anything. More of thei...

Re: OFFICIAL - New KCI Terminal

All in all, the new airport is pretty great, in particular the Southwest and Delta terminal. The biggest problem is still the vehicular traffic ingress upon arrival. It’s going to have to be re-engineered ultimately. Just a total mess with confusion over lanes for departures and arrivals, lines of t...

Re: OFFICIAL - New KCI Terminal

When the bar is set at the worst airport experience in America, the status quo is a major success. Again, it’s definitely a decent upgrade, just a little underwhelming. It’s not like we had aspirations of Singapore Changi Airport or anything ridiculous like that, but I was surprised at how mundane a...

Re: OFFICIAL - New KCI Terminal

Flew out of the new KCI this morning. No issues with traffic, but it was an Uber drop off and an early am flight. Excellent to finally have the f&b options and the public art is well integrated throughout. Those were the standouts. The holding areas at the gates are all super generic. Absolutely...

Re: OFFICIAL - New KCI Terminal

The new airport looks like it turned out well. Nothing super exciting or notable architecturally, but a much needed upgrade over the previous MCI. If we're being honest, it's a slightly better version of Love Field. Most importantly, it moves us firmly into the upper tier of Mid-Size airports in the...
