The Mataharians, a secret society of mid-level female executives who work in Downtown Kansas City, have laid hands upon preliminary plans for the new convention hotel. This view shows the building at the Power and Light site. The Center will include a 2,000 room hotel, expanded from the original 1,000 rooms, an office complex adjoining and linking up with the Power and Light Building and convention hall facilities on the north side which will compete with Bartle for bookings and are intended to pay for the operation of the complex. It will be called Emerald Center thus playing on the Oz theme so big in that adjacent other state. If approved by the council construction could begin as early as 2012. A cost of $600,000,000 is projected most of which will come from the snow removal budget.
Oh dear god say it's not so!! We already have a HUGE freaking convention center that no one is using. How the heck is that creating competition? Seems more like a total freaking waste. This city is so stupid.
ReplyDeleteIt's not so.... just an image I created... some people (me) should not be given computers.
ReplyDeleteI think they should paint the rest of the downtown green to match
ReplyDeleteI think it would have been nice as long as it matched the rest of the city a little more, tone down on the green a little, and it would have given my comic characters something to smash other than the One place building, as well as become a good tourist attraction.
