"The density that's being built is exactly what cities of our size need in order to sustain themselves," James said. "When you have a city this big, what you don't need is to be spreading out. You need to be contracting in so that services can be consolidated, transportation can be more focused.
...
"As we continue to grow and as we continue to do things like pursue Amazon and a new airport terminal, these are all things that will mesh together to make this city in the next 10 years even better than it is today and to bring its profile up, not just here in the city, not just in the state, not just in the region but around the country and the world."

looks similar to the OP convention center
rarely if ever do these projects look better than the renderings so there’s that

flip side is that it should attract business to the 64112, not sure how tif’d this thing is

i don't believe that was taken at 5 am this morning but if it was, it's certainly not the norm and believe it or not, things happen at every airport in the world that cause back ups

still voting no!

These pics come up ever-y-day on Twitter.  When those lines happen at other airports they can open up more security lanes...which as we know is impossible at kci.
