Re: OFFICIAL: Port Authority Riverfront Project
Anyone interested in the management of the big middle American rivers and what is actually going on should read Holding Back the River by Tyler Kelley.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
And some people would rather live in Joplin than KC. What is your point? My point is that I'm an enormous baseball fan, and a huge Royals fan, but beyond the economic impact (which is increasingly questionable given the enormous outlay of public money), I'm not so foolish as to fail to understand t...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
I hope they can get a stadium done in KC, but right now, I think there is about a 50% chance the Royals are not in KC in 2035. In another ten years, places like Nashville and Charlotte will be too much larger and will build a downtown stadium for the Royals in a heartbeat. And KC will be Buffalo wh...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
Downtown KCK would be fine with me. Probably rank it higher than NKC, lower than the site where it belongs (18th/Vine) or the "east village" site, but it wouldn't bother me at all. Legends or south JoCo would be a historic and very Kansas City miss.

Re: Bike Lanes
Allowing sidewalks to deteriorate into un-usability, campaigning for 30 years to keep bikes off of sidewalks, then making separated bike lanes (which is basically what a sidewalk is), and then having to "rebrand" those bike lanes as glorified sidewalks is why people doubt the effectiveness...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
Other than getting a new stadium, NKC seems like the worst of both worlds, not downtown, we lose a stadium I love, and the same ancillary development could be done at TSC. The upside would be I wouldn't have to chip in. I do not believe there will ever, under any circumstances, in any possible futu...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
Have people here thought about what they would do if they do announce NKC as the site? I know I'm not sure what I would do, other than just go along with it since there is not much else to do. I would be excited with either option. As long as the ballpark moves into the city, I'm pretty neutral. Th...

Re: Sporting Kansas City
Like said, going to a Royals game is odd because there like like nobody there in their 20s and 30s like I see in other stadiums. I love this newest narrative arc of your KC-Eeyore dystopian fantasy, in which baseball fans EveRywHere bUt Kc!!!!! are 20 and 30 somethings. Your capacity for sustained ...

Re: OFFICIAL - New KCI Terminal
I did recently get solar and it made sense with the rebates and low-cost Solarize KC program. Battery storage makes no sense but maybe next house I will do it. I am paying cash but it was going to be like $60 mo/financed 0% interest. Hopefully offsets about 50-60% of my power bill and it will add v...
