Kansas City begins talk and studies for downtown ballpark
http://www.kansascity.com/news/polit...177058541.html

The city of Kansas City is funding a study of at least four potential sites for a downtown baseball stadium for the Kansas City Royals, according to documents obtained by The Star.

A series of emails shows that Kansas City Manager Troy Schulte was involved in funding studies of four sites within the downtown loop that might be suitable for a baseball stadium.

Two of those sites, according to slides prepared by architecture firm HOK, are immediately adjacent to the Sprint Center, one to the north and one to the east.

Another site is East Village, several blocks of mostly undeveloped land and surface parking lots east of City Hall. A fourth site would involve several blocks of mostly surface parking lots beginning at the northwest corner of 8th and Main streets.

Others involved in the planning include Jon Copaken, principal with real estate development firm Copaken-Brooks, the Downtown Council of Kansas City, JE Dunn, The Cordish Co. and Tower Properties.

Schulte said the studies started after the Downtown Council approached City Hall about the feasibility of downtown baseball. Schulte added that he agreed to help fund a study to consider whether the four sites would work so that the city could plan ahead if the idea gained momentum.

“At this point it’s nothing more than hopes and dreams and discussions,” Schulte said.

A May 12 email from Copaken obtained by The Star suggested that conversations with the Royals and Jackson County have started.

“[T]he studies are underway, invoices are out, conversations from the County and the team are actually heading in the right way and we are sufficiently in the loop to know that real progress is being achieved,” Copaken wrote.

Kevin Uhlich, senior vice president of business operations for the Royals, said he had been contacted about downtown baseball stadium proposals earlier this year.

Keitzman is masturbating right now.

Personally, I think this would be stupid. Kaufman is beautiful, and it's easy to get in and out.

Downtown parking would be a freaking nightmare. If you want to see the skyline, go down and utilize P&L.

Yeah but they'll use the street car as an argument. They are ramming that thing down people's throats because people keep voting for it. They are building huge luxury apartments downtown and beginning to do the same in Westport.

They keep ramming it down people's throats... because people keep voting for it? That's like saying Pizza Hut is ramming pizza down the throats of people who order pizza from Pizza Hut.

What I mean is they love the street car but Kansas Citians hate not having parking. That's what's slowly happening to the city.

So are all the other downtown property/business owners. 27,754 people per game avg in 2017. That's a lot of bodies and dollars that would not be downtown otherwise.

And a lot of bodies that won't bother to come if they move. Tourism is one thing, but kansascitians? Doubtful.

Downtown is wrong for the Royals.

Dumb idea for the Royals. They draw a significant number of fans that drive from longer distances to the games. These fans would be less apt to attend games if they had to fight the traffic downtown.

A mid 90s survey reported only about 7% of our attendance comes from outside the metro.


Aren't you glad I'm here on this board?
