Re: Bike Lanes

If so I will literally cry. I love that area and THOUGHT the people were progressive enough to adapt to this.

Re: Why Can't the West Bottoms Be Redeveloped....?

Boulevard does not accept tips and pays there employees a living wage. My friends honestly hate working for tips in their situation, because of what you stated above ^^

Re: Generic ongoing KCATA thread

I just got a new job downtown and am so excited to not rely on my car for my job! Can't wait to take the bus from Hospital Hill to Union Station (During bad weather) and take the streetcar to work. I can only hope we get free fare....This would be a huge incentive for me to take the buss everywhere!

Re: Attention regional businesses

I think we'll find it much easier at first to attract Apple and Microsoft, etc downtown before our own hometown firms. Likely the case. And DT orgs should pursue them as well as other IT service companies like IBM/HP/Cisco, etc that tend to have fairly small local offices under 100. IBM used to be ...

Re: Bringing Conventions to Kansas City

Up to Date on NPR had a segment yesterday talking with the heads of the convention bureau and Visit KC.

Re: Misc Crossroads News

https://kccrossroads.org/explore/arts/ Those are just CCA members that self-identify as galleries. There is no comprehensive list, which is why I'm so baffled that people think they have an accurate count or that it has substantially changed. There are NEW galleries that didn't exist 10 years ago (...
