This is a terrible place to put it. They'll literally be killing the cultural heart of the city. A thriving entertainment district full of great restaurants, music venues, and it all happened organically.

So let's just destroy it.

When you literally have to drive everywhere to get anywhere in the city it’s a legit concern

I appreciate the aggressiveness of the plan though

It’s what KC could use

Forward thinking

Is there any proof of this thought that P&L is a huge failure in the current times? I was there before a Nate Bargatze show last week and every place was packed to the brim. I could not sit down anywhere. When I was a young man...always packed. Serving overpriced drinks and always busy. How it could be a black hole for money I dont quite get

They will make some park and ride street car stuff and extend distance of Street Car. Bank on it.

Chiefs to The Woodlands. They aren't going to be satisfied sitting on that island of nothingness.

They have to keep the Royals logo-shaped scoreboard.

I'm hoping that will be a "surprise" addition to the new renderings, instead of the generic rectangle video board that is currently there. Otherwise, these are the best renderings I've seen so far. I think it'll take a good ten years for the area to really get adjusted to it, but I this is pretty great and will encourage a lot of people to spend their day and evening downtown taking in a nice walk, some shopping, sites, eating/drinking and a ballgame.

It seems like the main goal with these renderings is to show how the stadium will be situated in the downtown area because the actual stadium features… especially inside the stadium… look very generic/architectural clip-art-like.

Also using the name “Royals Park” in the renderings… it’s not going to be called Kauffman Stadium?

It would be smart for the Royals to let the Chiefs do most of the PR work to encourage support for the sales tax vote.

Just get Mahomes to record a personal message asking voters to vote yes… easy win.

and just wait until the Chiefs share their plans.

I assume they'll move the parade tomorrow to a more parking friendly part of town right? Where else would several hundred thousand people park?

On the highway. Side streets. In people’s yards. 5 to ten miles away

srvy 02-13-2024 09:23 PM

The City isn't going to run busses every game day for baseball and certainly not free all over the metro. The Parade is a one day deal and the last two have been nightmares getting to and getting out.

Parking is not sexy when introducing your vision for the area. I imagine there is a plan it just wasn't mentioned and it will put more businesses out and historic bldgs will be raised.
