Or are you going to try to instruct people to go to a parking lot away from downtown and then take the street car?<br />People driving through downtown now on these roads already miss exits or merge last minute. I hate driving on i-35 and i-70 through downtown b/c it's the most dangerous sections of the highways, and then there is 71, where the hell all those maniac drivers going, not downtown, just through downtown.<br />Not only will there be the already predict bad traffic there will be a lot of wrecks. Or will folks not going to ball game have the forethought of taking 435 around the city.<br /><br />So show people your traffic plan to convince them it will not be a nightmare.<br /><br />Other than that, seems to be lack of ideas to build something on all those empty lots that were made desolate without much forethought when the two highways were put in.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-43596220173409649092020-01-31T11:50:56.370-06:002020-01-31T11:50:56.370-06:00But not too long ago the convention hotel was the ...But not too long ago the convention hotel was the missing piece.<br />Then it was Bartle Hall expansion.<br />Followed by THE streetcar extension.<br />Then a new subsidized office building.<br />And now this.<br />Are the KCMO electeds really this cowardly, stupid, easily-rolled, and financially irresponsible?<br />Past experience is not encouraging.<br />Momentum!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-87340667941503948592020-01-31T11:26:10.650-06:002020-01-31T11:26:10.650-06:00^^No retard.
