Hello, all. Your feedback is requested. If someone were to do an investigative piece on KCT, what are the specific areas of focus/documentation that would be most valuable to those efforts? I know we've discussed KC Tenants and listed many of these areas in the thread, but if you could reply with an...

There are no guarantees the Royals come back to the table in any meaningful way if this vote fails. At least two destinations seeking Major League Baseball have already reached out to the Royals. If the offer is right, they could take it. Zero percent chance. Talked about on here ad nauseum, Royals...

Why Jackson County? I don't think a non-urban Jackson County park does what the Royals feel like they need. Given the issues with East Village, I don't see many other options if the Crossroads vote fails other than waiting, educating and trying again (and perhaps acquire some of the land in advance...

I'm curious as to why the NBA needs 650,000 sq ft of exhibition space for an all star game? To be honest, sometimes I forget the NBA actually exists. KC has the hotel rooms but not a 5-star hotel -- although that did not prevent FIFA from selecting KC. KC Convention Center has just under 400k gsf e...

No yes no No way Bartle hall is that large. Pretty sure it's under 400k sq ft. Does KC have any five star hotels? I think Loews might be? KC is not close on any of these. Pretty high bar.

I don't believe Germany has made an official decision or announcement. Here is the article: https://www.cjonline.com/story/news/politics/government/2024/01/24/officials-foresee-economic-impact-kansas-2026-world-cup/72314176007/ That article is a bit unclear. It almost makes it sound as though Germa...

Any hints as to what it could entail?

I would assume it means significant financial contributions from both Missouri and Kansas

I didn't hear anything about a particular hotel franchise beyond they were talking to some. I imagine this will be a middle-upper tier hotel flag.

Can confirm it is a luxury brand (at this time) that would be new-to-market.

Eastern State Penitentiary is a must IMHO -- great year-round, but really special around Halloween.

Yeah! Only YOU get to make the threats on here. There’s making threats to ban people from a forum, and making threats to share intentionally withheld personal information from a group of strangers on the internet… Threats are threats and he just made another one implying he has all the info, fuck u...

That’s great to see!

How is that embarrassing? He's right. Zelensky came dressed like a slob demanding more money despite getting billions already. What was embarrassing was Harris/Pelosi hanging the Ukrainian flag I feel sorry for you https://twitter.com/DarnelSugarfoo/status/1606063522739154944?t=FM5FgVoEWy8C1fT07xv5...

One question I haven't really seen addressed is, how much additional federal funding for projects might be made available to KC and other host cities? Maybe the answer is none. Im not sure if it would be explicitly labeled, such as some sort of host city infrastructure fund pool, or the case where ...

I’m not a Trump supporter but I’ll let that inaccuracy slide because I can reasonably understand how you get there. I won’t label you even though the writing is on the wall. Your comment about politicians being able to do multiple things at once makes me wonder if you understand anything about gove...

I think there will be talk about a high-service luxury hotel whether it be Hotel Bravo coming back into discussion or the upgrading of an existing hotel to meet higher standards. 5 star branded hotel is still a long shot. You will need an incentive for the development and I think you’ll need a room...
