Re: Plaza move-ins (ongoing)

That's a shame. That'll leave only one Cinemark in the whole metro. Can't help but wonder if they'll exit the market entirely. Also can't discount that the theaters got a disproportionate share of blame for the #TeenLoiteringProblem a few years ago. Given that the new owners seem to go for the easi...

Re: Plaza move-ins (ongoing)

Good opportunity to rehab the old Plaza Theater! Only half joking - would love to see it happen if there is even a fraction of the original theater space and architectural detail left. I don't see this as a huge loss - these theaters took up a ton of space and were empty a lot of the time. Also not...

Re: Politics

According to this, KS has significantly moved away from being the most GOP state now more towards Indie from 2013 to 2017. MO has increased in Indie identity as well but GOP increased higher than KS. http://ava.prri.org/#politics/2017/States/party/m/US-KS,US-MO http://ava.prri.org/#politics/2013/St...

Re: Fixing the KC Zoo (ongoing)

I don't know, but conventional wisdom would put it near the penguins and polar bears if they are wanting to make the Zoo a wintertime destination. Don't want to make people walk any further out in the cold than they have to considering the vast parking lagoons to cross. could they bring in heated t...

Re: New Grocer

Just bring back Dillon's already. :D I'm sure there is some part of the deal that Kroger made with Price Chopper that says that Kroger can't build any new stores in JoCo and Price Chopper can't move into Topeka for a certain period of time. Kroger was making no effort to be competitive in JoCo, Jop...

Re: Bannister Mall/Cerner

Anyone read and can summarize where the new larger than life subdivision is being developed as per the article in KCBJ? I can’t imagine it’s in the Hickman School District. I think it would be in the Raytown SD, a slightly higher performing district compared to Hickman Mills SD, no where near Blue ...

Re: Plaza move-ins (ongoing)

This is a stupid conversation. The Plaza owners could care less if you forgot your toothbrush. Use your finger. The Plaza is in a retail death spiral and people are worried about where tourists are going to get some mouthwash. It's insane. and many hotels now offer that stuff, some even have mini c...

Re: MegaBus service offers $1 rides from St Louis to Chicago, KC added

I'm still kind of mad Megabus bolted KC and I really thought they mishandled the route operations here. St Louis now goes to Dallas with a stop in Memphis. I always thought KC should have had a route to Dallas with Stops in Lawrence, Wichita, OKC and Norman. KC also should have had stops to Omaha a...
