Show Notes
Kansas Citys new proposal for a downtown ballpark at Washington Square Park could be a game-changer. The plan involves tearing down a vacant office and service road, with no impact on existing businesses. If approved, it would be a $1.9 billion investment, funded by bonds, tax increment financing, and budget shifts, with no new taxes. The Missouri Show-Me Sports act could contribute up to half the costs, making it the largest economic boost downtown has ever seen. The Royals have also unveiled their 2026 City Connect uniforms, adding to the excitement. Keep an eye on the upcoming votes.
