There's one risky development down by the river with plans for more KAPUT thanks to the recent real estate market crash . . . Here's word of more local toy train from the mayor at a time when people are staying away from public transit and the toy train development boom has stalled amid the pandemic. Take a look:

ReplyDeleteFunny, and I wonder how much of that money goes under the table to the racist street graffiti? They have already depleted the GO Bond and I don't see any new sewer lines or sidewalks other than a patch here and there and that GO bond is compound.
Qui bono?
ReplyDeleteKCMO bono.

ReplyDeleteTHE streetcar is still just a toy as well as a joke.
The latest developments just make it a more expensive toy than it already was.
More "free" (borrowed) money from Washington.
Sad.
