Re: OFFICIAL - Pennway Point

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

Re: OFFICIAL - Pennway Point

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. All you have to do is come out of Union Station and turn right. The entrance is on Broadway at Pershing, elev...

Re: OFFICIAL - Pennway Point

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...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

You’re a cry baby, anytime someone talks bad about sports on this form all of you get so bunched up. I think it’s a terrible investment regardless of how much money it brings to the city because our city isn’t going to use the money wisely they’re just going to continue to put it in their pockets. ...

Re: Trees in KC (ongoing)

100% moving transmission lines underground, even incrementally over a long time frame, would be laudable for the numerous benefits it would have in terms of reliability, interactions with trees, beautification, etc. Not saying it wouldn't be an expense but it's something that should be nibbled at a...

I assume that any development around future stations will include some type of garage(s).
