Pedestrian streets work when you have a good mix of high density office and residential for many blocks around them in all directions, and high utilization of residents walking places and taking mass transit as their primary method of moving about. The best method to redevelop the East Village is us...

By the way, I expect flyingember to inform me that the dimensions on the thing that I think is a spaghetti squash are in fact wrong and it has to be something else. She/he will know what it really is. :) An organic linguini melon with origins in 13th century Cyprus. Has someone been watching Stanle...

I had apartments for years without rental insurance.

It could be moved to the Randolph Bottoms and still be an amenity. Still close, but doesn't interfere with downtown structures.

I am so sick of the downtown airport dictating everything happening downtown.

so can those simple architectural elements be added to the bridge? I assume they serve no support functions, just aesthetics, which is fine. Anything to punch up the design a little. This bridge is the main entry way to to city for most of the people coming from the airport to downtown. They really...

Is there anything that can be done to add some kind of aesthetics to bridge to give it some more design "pop" are architectural elements? I understand they are doing this on a shoestring budget and the FAA rules had to be adhered to. But is there anything that can be done to improve the cosmetics t...

Without a casino, a residency-type "mall" of performance venues still could work. It would differentiate it from the Midland and the Folly. Longer-run shows could make use of the smaller theaters as they could be used for comedians, magic shows, spoken artist, and author events. The larger theater c...

I would think KC and STL(and STJ, etc) have an interest in keeping river boat gaming. Maybe a happy medium would be “within 2 miles” of the river.

I think a major flood disaster might change the rule about being near the river. Ameristar is just a levee break from physical ruin.
