I'm trying to think of stuff along the river that's east of the river market area.
Not much yet. One apartment complex and the park itself. The port authority thinks the rail line will create even more demand for their master plan.
I'm not sold but I think getting it to isle of crapi where the city owns a large lot that could be used for a park and ride or.other development could increase the benefit of the expansion.
Like, will BarK have its own stop? There is literally nothing there. Run it east along 8th or something and get some $$ flowing to the poorer parts of KC.
but the idea is that this extension will grow the river quay into a rich and bustling district and that people (who?) will hang out and pump hundreds of millions of dollars into the area.
the streetcar isn't meant to help the poor, it's designed the make the rich (developers), richer.
the streetcar concept is designed to shuttle white people around who have money to spend offsetting development costs.
