Re: Capping the Loop

I look forward to the announcement from Cordish that due to safety considerations, during events and programming Main will need to be closed with the streetcar swapped for busses and detoured.

Only on special occasions, we promise.

Re: Capping the Loop

I know we are all pro-streetcar in here but I do think it's a balance. Considering that what, 98% of the people who are coming downtown every day to work or attend a event use personal vehicles, it deserves some priority. So screwing over the vehicular traffic to make the streetcar more efficient d...

I predict that he will say that if KC approves a downtown stadium, he will play a dozen dates at the new stadium.

There's probably a way to do a pedestrian underpass for the Broadway crossing if it came to it.

Oh wow, it's only 140'? Yeah, that's pretty bush league lol. It's still fine though. My big issue is how to tie this area to the rest of downtown. It's not easy or fun to walk to that area.

I'm actually warming to this. The neon thing is cool. The Ferris wheel still seems pretty small townie. I don't see myself going here much but there isn't anything there now so something versus nothing and it gives activity perception to those passing on 35. If they can get the greenbelt thing goin...

Re: Bike Lanes

Are you trolling us? No, just getting a bit tired of some of the urban development cliche that doesn’t really seem to change the city as drastically as it needs to. Let’s just be very honest, very few people want to bike commute to work. There, I said it. It’s probably in the 100s of people in a me...

Re: Murphy Beds

We have one in our guest room. Game changer for the 51 weeks a year we don't have a houseguest.

Along with being attached to the wall framing with 3 inch screws, it's design makes what you described impossible to happen, thank goodness.

Re: KCMO Downtown Streetcar

The Mayor really wants to keep the dedicated lanes on Main St. Can’t wait to hear what the opposition says. This is a no-brainer, especially since everyone’s already gotten used to functioning with a limited Main St. https://twitter.com/quintonlucaskc/status/1679095816437346304?s=46&t=t3PXEMdTm...
