Re: Capping the Loop

We have to stop making investments that fit today’s needs and lifestyles and start designing them for the future that is coming and what will be needed/wanted. We as a society have nearly maxed out our physical commitments to automobiles. Particularly in downtown urban settings where commercial and ...

Re: OFFICIAL - New KCI Terminal

You all have to remember this is not a larger hub or international airport. Most of the planes we are filling are 737s or A320's (less than 200 pass). I also don't anticipate us having every gate in use in a hall at all times so you'll have the ability to spill over to another gate most of the time....

Re: Infrastructure Stimulus

I would love to settle for a $225k house, alas, almost everything on the market is going fast, gets extreme bids out of nowhere, & almost everyone is waiving inspections & more just to be able to buy. But as you said, facts that you personally know hit harder than studies & statistics, ...

Re: Politics

Having it out in the open allows these people to find each other more easily and organize around their noxious views and gives them access to a wider audience of people who might be for one reason or another susceptible to this kind of thinking but who might never have found it in the first place i...

Re: Politics

Do you mean, go back underground? While having them out and open and honest and saying the quiet part out loud has been eye-opening, it hasn't been pleasant. More press and coverage leads to more violence and ability to influence others. See ISIS as an example. They used social media and other foru...

Re: KCMO Downtown Streetcar

We recently moved to Houston so it was nice today when my wife called and said that she just passed a RideKC Streetcar on Hwy 6 to the West of Houston. I'm guessing this is 806 on its final delivery to KC.

Re: We need a new airport!!!

Seems almost TOO simple of a design. I like all of the glass and the wood ceilings, but everything seems to much like an Apple Store. Still wish we could get the scalloped ceilings back.

Re: Hotel Bravo- 17th and Wyandotte

I love everything about this project, but they need to reduce their TIF request significantly. 50% for 10 years and 25% for the next 15 would be better, IMO

Re: We need a new airport!!!

My understanding is that this is all to do with Allegient and Spirit trying to lessen the overall impact to them and they're using a critical piece of the new terminal (Baggage) as leverage. The top four carriers have signed off on the airport (Southwest, United, American, and Delta) which is more t...

I'm hoping we get some more international destinations via Southwest. We just flew from Houston Hobby to Belize and there were a lot of KC folks on the Southwest flight.

Re: We need a new airport!!!

KSHB reporting the cost of the terminal is increasing to $1.9 billion. Anyone know why?
