It's not like they tore down the original Gates BBQ to build the arena and P&L... what was there before, Temptations?

The business district part of downtown is your normal stuff. This stadium going in south of I-70 will be destroying a very hip, happening arts/music/brewery/restaurant district full of life. Nothing shitty about it. |

All the parade coverage has been right where the stadium will be.

This plan has all of the same actors, with the added goat**** of destroying a KC success story to replace it with another round of tax abatements and corporate chain bullshit funnelling the money out of the city again. This isn't progress, it's a grift. |

Yeah, it would suck if they replaced The Belfry with some generic place, or a few other places... but not seeing much in the construction zone between Grand and Locust and 17th and to the north. I'd love walking from Taps on Main or Oak and Steel to a game or having a beer after (and not being local, then walking to a hotel for the night)... huge, massive improvement over the K in that regard.

The Record Bar, on the opposite side, The Brick. My good friends own The Pairing, as well.
It's important to realize as well that even if they don't tear your location down, you will be out of commission during building if you are on the edge, and after the stadium is complete, and you don't own the building the business is in, the rent will go through the roof and you'll simply be priced out to be replaced by a chain that can absorb the cost. |

Anyone who's ever been afraid of a downtown park should visit Petco. Easy in/easy out. unlimited food and drink options within walking distance. It's perfect. And c'mon man....."but I tailgate at baseball games....". Really?
