I always though 20th and Broadway would be a perfect spot for a ballpark. I know its mainly warehouses and other business, land acquistions would be high though. But you would have access off I-35 there, and the view of downtown would be perfect. Also I nice buffer between downtown, Union Station and the Crossroads.

But then again Kansas City is a very driving oriented city, its a smaller version of the Metroplex. (That will gall some douches like Laz who hate Texas) But its the truth, KC is spread out and Dallas is the major city that KC is the most like. Hell they built their ballpark out in the suburbs as well and all that is around it is Six Flags and Wal Mart Supercenter. Urban living with the sports venues is cool but it has to feel right for the city IMO. St. Louis has all the stadiums downtown and its nice for us outtowners, I don't know how I would feel about it if I lived out in Chesterfield and wanted to go to a Cardinals game alot of the time.

I've never parked more than 200 yards from the gate, Chiefs or Royals.

I don't think there's a parking spot on the property that's .6 of a mile from the K.

According to you, that type of walk is typical.

Which was his whole point earlier. Less walking because everything is across the street or with in a block. This is almost surreal.

It's a pain in the ass.

American Royal is already got a plan in place for it.

Like I said, he's all over the map.

That plan was prior to power and light being built. I'm pretty sure they would be shuttles going back and forth from the stadium to power and light.

He's getting really close to being off the map.

Hey, now we're talking about taking a shuttle to the bar.

Comical.

Figured for locals it would suck. When we go to St Louis we get a hotel and just roll from there. I always like the Drury by the Dome. Cheap price for free parking, food, and its right next to Lacelde's Landing and Casino. Normally get a cab to Scottrade or Busch for the game.

live strong stadium is 1 mile from the legends. how to the people get back and forth so far?

they do have trams that run to and from the parking lot.

1st, how about we ask some soccer fans if they feel the need to tie one on after the game, or if they're content with the current setup.

2nd, how many times are you going to change your argument?

3rd, where are you getting these numbers? There's an Arthur Bryants and a Brewhaus directly across the street, IIRC.

If we keep at him long enough he will keep pushing the boundary back until we finally get to Truman Sports Complex.

At such time I will then start advocating a downtown stadium just to fuck with his mind.

If you think that's doable, great. Maybe it is. The fact is the city dumped hundreds of millions into the renovations without any plan to do anything like that.
