Start building and block Oak St: OMG why didn't they think about this?!?

Change a plan after looking at it: OMG, what a mess!

...I'd love a job in an industry where projects never change course, even a tiny bit, lmk.

It probably shouldn't be up for a vote if they're still making changes that drastic, though.

The reason their plans are not very detailed is so they can easily manipulate the use of the money for their benefit.

And I get the whole trust thing with knowing whether they're just winging all of it or have some kind of plan... if it was "oh by the way, we found out we can't build there and we're going to tear down the river market, but thanks for the money!".... yeah, that's a big deal.

The nuances of whether a street will remain open at this stage... :-)

Well your priorities suck then it seems. Closing off a street that has the largest Downtown employers City Hall Jackson County Courthouse Federal office and Courthouse along with all the support buildings that accompany the Federal City and County Government :-) right dammit we got baseball here.

How much money and civic recognition have the Royals and Chiefs brought to the city over the years? I'd like to see those numbers.

You all have no idea how much traffic flows in and out of Oak St and Locust because of the above.

I would go for this.

Party like it's 1979. Also good to see Generative AI can't deal with the concept of a batter's eye.

Sherman pinching pennies trusting an architectural company to design the new ballpark. without apparently a qualified civil engineering firm with a planning division to help them through this shit. Amature hour! Architects make pretty pictures Engineers plan communities and make Architect's dreams work!
