Re: Plaza move-ins (ongoing)
We realize you look for every opportunity to nitpick us but you're on wrong topic. NT was talking about Plaza proper, not tennis courts. Really, who did he quote? Given there's two topics intertwined if you're so psychic you can tell me which "they" we can blame If you look back at what h...

Re: Bike Lanes
I am certainly not qualified to comment on what the white community want vs what the black community wants but judging from the color of weekend bike traffic on the Paseo, biking might be considered a thing for young white folks. I find it ironic that biking has racial undertones when the city buss...

Re: Bike Lanes
I'm guessing the butt-hurtness for Gillham is more along the lines of "With NB Gillham down to one lane, I (maybe, if I'm driving during the peak 15 minutes of 'rush hour') have to wait several extra seconds at lights after they turn green or I can't speed around anyone who dares drive the act...

Re: Plaza move-ins (ongoing)
The heyday of "Save the Plaza" hysteria was over 10 years ago and most of the loudest people were the oldest ones. There will be a change in attitude about development and good leadership from the majority owners would help. It will change but as GRID says, probably not until there's a ca...

Re: P&L District: 13th & Walnut Site Proposal
This is similar to their long term plan but staffing concerns this year forced them to do one location in PNL. Up until 3 weeks ago they were going to use 2 spaces. Translation- They don’t want to pay enough to get workers. Funny. Not even close though. For a temporary service industry gig it doesn...

Re: Plaza move-ins (ongoing)
I think it's time the institution of the Plaza be abolished. The single ownership of the plaza has not produced any impressive results and threatens to stagnate itself. That said, I wouldn’t be too bothered by the Plaza continuing to lose prominence. It was founded explicitly as a competitor of dow...

Re: Missouri Amtrak Service
Not too shabby a start. New track apparently costs up to $2 million per mile If it was 100% spent on track that's enough to lay 33,000 miles To put that in comparison, Network Rail (UK) has 20,000 miles of track for 60 million people. So just spent on track, we could have 1/3 the network of the UK p...

Re: COVID19
No, we should be empathetic to the pain, the grief, the negativity and not give up.
If the system in their head is imaginary it’s possible to get through. Giving up in pessimism helps no one.
