Show Notes

As the Kansas City Royals prepare for their season opener, the focus has narrowed down to Washington Square Park for a new stadium. Despite other sites being considered, including a Chiefs stadium in Wyandotte County and a headquarters in Olathe, the park remains the top choice. Fans like Jim Price, a retired plumber, are excited about the prospect of a stadium in the park, citing easy access via streetcar and scenic views. However, challenges such as railroad tracks, an underground creek, and tricky terrain may delay the project until mid-April. Meanwhile, other proposals like a North Kansas City mixed-use idea and Aspiria campus have been put on hold due to lack of progress and pushback from neighbors and businesses.
