Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

Why wouldn't they get used? Typical KC response. Let's think small and build a little minor league ballpark that seats 20k and then we can worry about adding more seats later. If they want taxpayer support, I would not vote for a downtown stadium if it didn't seat at least 30k+. They're not going t...

Re: Uptown Shoppes

A Marriot hotel is in the design phase for mid-town. I wonder if its the Uptown hotel. https://www.construction.com/projects/dr-201600468674-marriott-towne-place-suites-hotel Let's hope not. The Uptown hotel was supposed to be a "Moxy" brand. I'd consider Towne Place to be a considerable ...

Re: Stockyards 1895

Yeah - that map is a blast. I think it's somewhere in the "Why Can't the West Bottoms be Redeveloped" thread, but who the hell knows where.

Thanks for posting it in its own thread.

I think he was at 55th/Stateline. But I also heard he had to move because some publication printed his address and people were rubber-necking. Not sure what is true.

Re: FBI Campus

Hate to lose any downtown tenants, but that is a great little chunk of land. Would be some pretty good views for any residential or commercial development.

Same. I'll go so far as to call it clickbait when you throw doughnuts in there.

Re: COVID-19 Casualties

Added Jacobson to the list. Gotten independent confirmation that the Parkway restaurant people bought it up and are renovating it. There is definitely a lot of work going on at the site. I loved the vibe, set up and cocktails at Jacobson, but I never liked the food. Sorry to see them go, but also e...

They could also wash them. I would think a full, successful building like that would have the money to do that once or twice a year.

Re: Closed Bars and Restaurants

Beignet is closing after 7 years at City Market. This is why I wish some local restaurant executive with a pulse on local restaurant runnings (Joyce) could warn us of potential closings. We could have all hit up Beignet and given some much needed CPR to keep it going in the short term. I know all r...

Re: COVID & Carryout

I ordered lunch from Jarocho's (sp?) last week and it was very good (as usual). Rudy's Tenampa was good.

Looking forward to Fox and Pearl for lunch sometime this week. They have a good looking menu.

I've heard The Russell is doing good work - I need to get some of that too.

Re: COVID19

Does the general public need N95s? Not that anyone seems to know for sure, but wearing masks personally seems to be more about coughing/sneezing (infecting others) - and touching your own face/nose when you're out in the dirty, dirty world. I think regular surgical masks or covering of the mouth and...

Re: Politics

Bernie going to St Louis makes a little more sense because u can get people from Illinois to come to his rally which has a primary a week later. Kansas doesn't have primary for a couple more months He had them both on the schedule. It's not like he needed to choose between the two. Unless Bernie th...
