Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
I’m seeing more yes votes on here then no votes. The no votes are understandable knowing the perspectives of those members. A few members are loyal crossroads supporters, residents and or business owners. I can respect their desire to keep crossroads untouched while also pointing out that the area ...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
The progressive vote was never in any sizable majority going to vote for this. I think this project excites the Jackson County suburbanites more than the East Village, which again, they had never heard of until 3 years ago (if not three months ago). This entire urban progressive board was going to ...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
Discussion of another site that was previously eliminated is just turning off lots of perspective voters that are already "iffy" on the whole issue of stadium replacement and public financing. I also think they lose a good portion of the urban/progressive vote, that would otherwise be for...

Re: GO ROYALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think the major issue is, why play 162 games if you have a third of the teams in the playoffs? Baseball is a streaky game so we have a long season to average things out. So either change the regular season back to 144 games or drop the number of post season teams. I vote for 144 games. Still too ...

Re: GO ROYALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't understand the line of thinking that is saying these 2 teams don't deserve to be in the WS since their regular season record wasn't the best. Isn't that what we love about March Madness? The underdog, the team that squeaks in and makes a run? These 2 teams beat the other teams in a series, n...

Re: Generic ongoing KCATA thread
I imagine the sales tax renewal vote will pass with around 70% of the vote. Number largely boosted because I expect turnout will be lower with no big issues on the ballot (looking at the sample ballot, KCMO has the transit sales tax and the sale of an unused park on the ballot. Jackson County has a...

Re: Is KC Tenants destroying the development future of downtown KCMO?
Pretending that every single instance of eviction is some evil landlord who is preying on lower and lower middle class is a completely disingenuous stance, and the majority of us calling that out is somehow frowned upon? Okay. Pretending that anybody except you said "every single" anythin...

Re: OFFICIAL - New KCI Terminal
We have a car service for our return from an upcoming trip and they made a point to say they could not pick up at the curb but would meet us at luggage.
Flight is due at 11:30 so will get a good look.

I'm going to throw in the internet, algorithms, and hedge fund/out of town ownership.
Particularly with rental prices.

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...
