Re: Status and future of the River Market area??

I could swear I heard that there was a container building proposed for the sliver of space between 511 and 517 Delaware.

It was TWA’s mistake and there’s no way the city should’ve been on the hook for that screwup. I can’t imagine how anyone could have an inch of sympathy for the airline in this scenario

Re: We are getting a new airport!!!

Re: Nashville?

This might be the first modern architecture I’ve ever seen proposed or built in nashville that I actually kinda like. It’s not a glass cube, so that alone is a step up

Re: Sporting Kansas City

Stadiums need to be reserved for locations where they won’t damage the grid. Places like washington park or Berkley that are sprawling enough to handle a structure like that

Where they DO hurt us, though, is when downtown high rises are being used as data centers
