Re: OFFICIAL - Buck O'Neil Bridge

What I’ve been told is that the airport nixed decorative lights because they didn’t want anyone thinking the bridge was a runway Maybe there’s some kinetic sculpture capturing the wind that could make the bridge more attractive? Oh man, I was thinking the bridge would have at least the minimal ligh...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

It's a problem when trying to serve two masters in the same vote but nobody, not even the owners, can claim this was well done. Sure they will try and blame the politics of it but that's a part of anytime you are asking for public money, that's not a valid excuse. 100%. Have spoken with 3 minority ...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

I wish I could see exit polling from the vote thus far. Considering that the Royals and the Chiefs kicked in a combined $1 million dollars Friday towards the Vote Yes campaign, I would imagine that internal polling is showing the results closer than they were expecting https://www.kshb.com/news/loca...

Re: Levy at Martini Corner (NE Corner 31st & Gillham)

We *should* (based on what the neighborhood association has been told) see construction begin on this in a month or two. While there hasn't been any permit activity in a while, the Compass project has recently-updated plans for platting . Was getting nervous with the hay being thrown down on the de...

Re: OFFICIAL - East Village

I do believe we need more new build residential that’s not high rise, luxury type housing This, though, I am with you 100%. A lot of people on this board seem obsessed with high rises, but making the skyline look more impressive from a mile away doesn't necessarily do shit for the on-the-ground urb...

I like the Brookside HomeGrown location.

Definitely not as booze forward a brunch as Farmhouse for instance. Which I think is the best brunch vibes downtown imo

Isn’t this HomeGrown?
