Odds they leave the name of the stadium AND the team when they leave the state of MO?

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

I feel so disconnected from the comments I'm reading here. The general consensus among people in my life was that this was a disastrous campaign. It was late and felt rushed on the royals side. They didn't get community buy in ahead of time, and the behind the scene machinations left questions. It ...

Re: OFFICIAL - East Village

I've been really fascinated about this exact subject recently. If anyone knows more information please PM me. Below is a map with the sections of land cleared for these projects and where in the city they were. As you can see, most of the area cleared is still under built today https://i.ibb.co/Bq6P...

Re: Is KC Tenants destroying the development future of downtown KCMO?

Anecdotally my family members were talking about KC Tenants on Easter Sunday. This stadium issue has helped them become part of the conversation even for those that aren’t particularly plugged in to these things.

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.

I do believe we need more new build residential that’s not high rise, luxury type housing This, though, I am with you 100%.

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?
