Re: 10th and Main Southwest Corner (former transit center)

I have vague memories of noticing that shortly after Walnut was converted to 2-way all through downtown; I assumed then that 10th had also slated to be converted back to 2-way between Main and Walnut, but (for whatever reason) the conversion never actually happened. Blame Commerce Bank. well that a...

Re: 10th and Main Southwest Corner (former transit center)

tangentially related but curious. does anyone know why are there streetlights on the W side of 10th at main, facing E, when 10th is a one way EB road (so no cars would ever pull up facing those lights given current traffic pattern)? they put these up at some point in the last handful of years--they ...

Re: OFFICIAL - Wallstreet Tower (formerly US Bank Tower)

yup, this concept seemed dead on arrival. it was open a while longer than a couple months though. probably had what 6 months before covid really hit? they took a swing at a summer or fall 2020 reopen too iirc.

Re: P&L District: 13th & Walnut Site Proposal

mr green background do you have any suspicion that anything other than a bar/restaurant is going in to any of the current vacant p&L spots (bar louie, mixx, saucer, hotel karaoke, leinenkugels if its vacant, etc)??

Re: KCK Gondola

yeah... the jog from washington or broadway to main is so much more manageable than the jog from the dole courthouse to main. i'm all for connecting fixed transit to fixed transit where it works out but definitely don't think it has to be point to point to add value. walking/ busing/ scootering or b...

Re: Power and Light District Official Tenant List

interested in seeing how this comes together. feels like the kind of thing where open air would be nice, at least as an option. i know the axe place has those windows they pull open when it's nice out. anyway, hope they can execute this without it feeling like some mall of the great plains afterthou...

Re: Three Light

the set up was awkward but it pretty much had to be, there's just not a lot of room over there. at least the block didn't smell like toxic waste like it did yesterday morning around the same time.

Re: KC's Top Ten Dive Bars

what is the definitional difference between a dive bar and a hipster bar? likelihood of getting stabbed or offered illicit drugs? average age of denizens or tightness of jeans?

Re: Power and Light District Official Tenant List

there is a black film on the windows fronting walnut that blocks most of the view. walls seem about the same color. i haven't cared enough to walk up the steps and openly peek, but i walk past it 4+ times a day so that could happen any minute now.

Re: Phase Three Streetcar Expansion

hold on hold on. are those three routes truly triskelionic? it seems to me they probably aren't. perhaps some visual aids would help get to the bottom of this.
