Will my ankle band suffice?

Re: OFFICIAL: Power & Light District

I went to Ice House the other night. I asked if they had fall-off-the-bone ribs and they explained that pork ribs don’t really do that, and that’s more what beef ribs do. I’ve been to Texas Roadhouse many times and really enjoy their super tender ribs that you can eat with a knife and fork, no fing...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

How much art is actually occuring in east crossroads? I feel like it’s more of a bar and restaurant district than much of a gallery district tbh. Which is fine, but then they shouldn’t be acting like the ballpark is going to nuke a bunch of galleries when it’s a mile away There is more to an arts d...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

This is what I’ve been saying all along! Even if a stadium doesn’t happen, this section of crossroads will be bought up slowly overtime and transformed into something far more modern. The Calverts lot is just the beginning. So “saving the crossroads” is more like “delaying the inevitable”. The Cros...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

Isn't that an argument for east village where you can define a neighborhood? As far as I've seen the legacy is like a couple buildings? Exactly. And those couple of legacy buildings – a hotel? An office? – will be built on the ruins of historic buildings that are homes to legitimate businesses. Kin...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

Let's be honest. Nobody is going to help those displaced businesses. The only ones that can are their landlords and it's unlikely that will happen in any of these cases. Hasn’t Abbot already verbally committed to doing exactly that though? I think it depends who you ask. He has said that in the med...

Re: 5th and Main (Northwest Corner)

I know a restaurant owner in the RM and spoke to him right after the meters went in. He could care less about where his customers park but he was very concerned about his employees. The meters have time limits and they have to run out and feed them during their shift and can barely afford the cost, ...

Well, it's not just the internet. She's been on local media, press conferences etc saying the same things.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

Regarding the fed buildings, I'm sure Sherman and the Royals have been very sensitive to their needs and want to work with them and will buy them out for a fair amount. After all, they will see a nice profit. After Trump is elected, they won't be there long anyway. The baseball stadium is a higher a...

Damn it I meant to go to that. You must have been too busy throwing out wild allegations and speculations as absolute truths.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

Matt Abbot is in a great position to help HIMSELF as he has other available properties in the area. Most owners will come out ahead, especially if they have good legal representation. Most business owners will get fucked. I have watched this happen time and again and have sold land under threat of ...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

How about the Royals start the process by giving every Jackson Co. resident $60 credit towards tickets or concessions? The economic benefits of a downtown stadium are arguable. The greater impact, immediately and more so over time, will change the character of the neighborhood. Whether you think tha...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

Of course there have been no environmental or traffic studies. Economic impacts of downtown baseball stadiums are wildly contradictory and supporters pick and choose the ones that suit their needs. The only certainty is that it will drive up property values, mostly within a quarter mile. That is goo...
