Re: Skyline from 169
Nice photos! I commonly think to myself that this view is underrated, yesterday included. I feel that the lack of a convenient and well-known vantage point plus the lighting challenges for a good portion of the year combine to make it less prominent. Maybe the City of NKC could build an elevated vie...

What a neat little building, and 100% irreplaceable.

Re: Proposition D: Raising the gas tax
Is that under the threshold that requires a public vote? That's the only way to get it done right now, but it seems that in the past the legislature has been too afraid of being primaried over this meager increase.

Re: Troost developments
Had a great response from Parks & Rec to a 311 complaint I made. I noticed at the NW corner of Troost Park there was a sidewalk on the north border of the park that went about 15 feet and then vanished into a tangle of trees and shrubs that extended all the way to Paseo. Looked at a map that sh...

Re: Status and future of the River Market area??
Also, if I remember correctly, financing is a challenge with condos because lenders require a certain amount of units to be sold before construction begins. This is why the light buildings in PNL have yet to feature any condos for sale. Is it the same for single family housing? Yes, there are addit...

The P&L building got enhanced, too.
Unrelated, and I don't know the context, but the header image in this article has someone from "Better Call Saul" wearing a Royals shirt: https://www.npr.org/2020/09/18/91419591 ... the-deggys

Re: New Broadway Bridge
I like a pretty bridge as much as the next person, but what has the aesthetically pleasing Bond Bridge done to enhance downtown, the riverfront, or North Kansas City that a boring girder bridge wouldn't have also accomplished? To me, landmark bridges are like tall buildings in the skyline. They look...
