You know how to combat that? Share the details of the plans and the financing. Silence brings this on and the royals have nobody to blame but themselves They have! The tax raises $350 million dollars and they’ve committed to spending over a billion in private money. And, they’ve committed to puttin...

If Oak "tunnels" similar to 13th under the convention center I'd be cool with that. I'd rather it not look like 14th under the CC or lower Wacker Chicago which are not pedestrian friendly.

It works fine for commuting and real life traffic. google maps can't tell us what we need to know about putting in 35k people into and out of the stadium by using the "it doesn't look busy in the morning" argument. For sure this would be a discussion for EV site too. There we wouldn't be ...

The reason they eliminated Oak is because they want the buildings right up against the stadium. Especially the office and residential that will have awesome ballpark views that can help demand higher rents. Yea, I don't give a F about their theoretical higher rents. The street needs to stay open an...

The Stadium can easily fit on the site without closing Oak. Push it a few feet towards Grand and remove a few rows of seats in the right field. Heck, in the press conference they said they haven't even decided on field dimensions yet.

The indoor pools are going to become a indoor pickleball courts.

If the shooting sways just 1-2% of people from not wanting a downtown stadium that could doom the vote... American gun culture is disgusting.

somebody can go ahead and give this to the Royals, I'm designing the stadium for free... You can Easily fit a baseball stadium (this is roughly a 30k seat stadium, using a Royals Urban academy field which has fences that are 8 to 10 feet shorter than the K. Also can fit a soccer field. Saves a big ...

I get it, but Oak is gone. The plan for Grand between T-Mobile and Kansas City Live will have to be tweaked but pedestrian safety is more important than saving someone 3 minutes of travel time. This attitude is going to make me fight the tax. I'd rather the royals move to Nashville than close oak. ...

Because they're shutting down Grand for the Parade tomorrow. Oak is usually lightly used. And grand is constantly closed for concerts, events, big 12, etc. Oak is extremely vital and I will not back down on this. I get it, but Oak is gone.

That press conference was terrible and full of non-answers. They haven't partnered with anybody, seemingly haven't even spoke with most property owners. Doesn't seem they have even worked with the city yet on street design. I bet they don't even know city ordinance doesn't allow new pedestrian bridg...

stadium design capital of the world and that's what we come up with... ugh..... literally the only thing I like about it is the extension of the highway cap

FUCK. THAT. PLAN.


Keep oak open

https://www.kansascity.com/news/business/openings-closings/article285200122.html That location never had anything I was ever was looking for in stock and was just overall not a good shopping experience there lately. It was liked they were running this store like they wanted it to fail for the last ...

I would say they overdid the LED boards when they updated the K. To much visual noise for not enough return, specifically thinking about the ones in the outfield wall. Hopefully both teams will consider some form of permanent locations for image mapping the field. We have been outfitting arenas for...

ribbon boards are just going to be covered in ads are NOT an upgrade. That's visual pollution. Visual pollution is how the team makes money to pay for things like.... players. LED ribbon boards are a crucial part of the fan experience. Get Loud, First Down, game info etc are all used via this metho...
