Yes

Ferris Wheel??

What I posted came from either the city or someone on the suit I will see if I can find the records. The depressing part is how long we have been having the same conversations. 26 years! It's baffling. I did not copy and paste the whole thing, only parts. Making progress Columbus Park on the reboun...

what was the plan here? Hotel? Rentals? Office? All the above?

Yeah very art deco and agree Fang they could have reused that facade. Sucks to lose.

Someone get @grid in here, we got a tower crane coming, update the map!

cool, yeah I see that is separate now, seems weird. It is a fun tool and glad to hear the data is improving. thanks for sharing.

There are two elementary school campuses in the downtown loop (crossroads academy) and more in real downtown. I think that site is cool but seeing a lot of people saying it's not very accurate. I haven't messed with it to know for sure.

Starting to see the amount of space they are leaving for streetside parking along the route, I don't see how cars are going to fit in those spaces and not impede the train....and I'm all for it. Sly way to cut the parking without saying you're going to cut the parking? and they had to be aware of t...

All pro owners/leagues are pushing hard. Not sure what that has to do with Grid's post about why they are asking for renovations so quickly and so substantial.

Nobody has posted anything close to saying crime isn't an issue in KC. Excited for a down trend in data doesn't mean anybody thinks its solved.

Citizens of a country of immigrants now not wanting immigrants is the ultimate irony. Take political talk somewhere else, there are plenty of outlets for it, this doesn't want to be one of them.

And any KC mayor playing nice with Jeff City doesn't get KC anything additional, they just run over KC and STL more. It's super idiotic and frustrating

Lol fair point but I gave this demo the unofficial ground breaking in my mind

STL Cardinals will ask the local and/state government for over $500 million to renovate Busch Stadium. No shot they get their second round (after 2006) of state funding package for a stadium whilst KC can't even get it's first one still. You can thank the mayor for the state treating us like their ...

Isn't demoing it considered ground breaking?

Yeah we need more rowhouse in KC but I wouldn't touch those due to the proximity to the highway. Glad they got built though!

Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems like the quality and service of the KCATA bus system has fallen quite a bit since they made it free. I predicted it would happen. Nothing good comes from making a transit system free to use which is why there are pretty much no large high quality, high use tra...
