Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
Less than 10% margin is enough that it can be moved. A lot of the KCMO, but especially the Urban KCMO votes could be swayed with some refinement, and an actual semi competent campaign. I’m disappointed with the outcome, but nothing that can’t be overcome. Let’s all keep motivated and optimistic, eve...

Re: Is KC Tenants destroying the development future of downtown KCMO?
Y'all really don't read my posts on this subject, do you? KCT isn't a tenant advocacy organization. It's also not a "KC" organization. And, "Affordable" housing isn't their game or goal. Their funding comes from exactly where you'd expect it to come from.. out of town interests....

Re: New Riverfront Women's Soccer Stadium
I get that the logistics are probably a lot easier this way, but it seems like a HUGE missed opportunity to not leverage some of the bus capacity of the weekday RideKC busses that are otherwise sitting dormant. Why aren’t we doing everything we can to create subconscious goodwill and familiarity wi...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
I'm actually liking the fact they'll build less but I'm also wondering how they'll generate additional revenue. Higher attendance and year-round rent paying tenants in their commercial spaces are more than they have now. The higher attendance bump from a new stadium wears off after 4 to 5 years and...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
Saving a couple buildings east of Oak doesn't prevent the Royals from building Hotels and Apartment buildings over there, I don't see what the big deal is. You could save half the buildings on Oak, save the fire station, and still fit 10+ one light size buildings between Oak/Cherry/Truman/17th I'm ...

Re: OFFICIAL - Buck O'Neil Bridge
Anyone seen the 119th ST bridge over I-35 in Olathe, and the lighting system they incorporated into that? I don’t imagine the Airport would take kindly to a large amount of bridge lighting that close to the runway, but I’d also see this as an easy way to dress up an otherwise unsightly and grotesque...

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 think I'm personally sick of seeing everything new go up downtown being "luxury" myself. I think back to nearly two decades ago when I moved downtown and there was no in between. It was income restricted or high-end. I wish we'd dedicate a portion of EV to the middle section of income e...

Re: OFFICIAL - East Village
East Village doesn't need to be loaded with retail and restaurant space, but a handful of small corner spaces for neighborhood amenities (neighborhood bar, a small bank, bakery, clothing store, neighborhood market, etc) would be ideal. Where is the nearest Dry cleaners? Considering the proximity to...
