I believe Paseo West will continue to be a candidate for denser mixed income housing, with a focus on affordability and unhoused/at-risk families. EV wouldn't require as much parking be built and I like the idea of an East Loop Cap. What's tricky is, and this is just my opinion, along with North Lo...

Wish it could go on the west side of 71. 71 will create such a barrier if the stadium is east of the highway. I don't like East Village either though unless there is a serious plan to build up the area east of the freeway loop and or cover the freeway loop. I just don't see how sticking a stadium i...

There are 2 ways to pay for this stadium: redevelopment district and/or stadium tax. Both options favor 18th Vine. A redevelopment district works best at 18th Vine where there is more space, the government already owns a lot of it, and land prices are low. Politicians and community groups support 18...

The list of negatives @18th/Vine is a mile long, miles and miles and miles. 18th and Vine is a loser. It will always be a loser. Because the people that run it ...

Went to 2 Cardinals games this weekend. Cardinal's stadium is better than Kauffman in pretty much every metric I have. Sat the upper deck for 1 and near the Cardinals dug out for the other. Takeaways: 1. Closer to the game Upper decks felt "on top of the game" and provided a compelling vie...

It's naive to think that "sentimentality" is the main force animating opposition to a new stadium or that opposition will be meaningfully diminished because "sentimental" people aren't paying attention to the day-to-day game results. You aren't going to sneak a generational proj...
