To finish the work week our AWESOME TKC BLOG COMMUNITY scooped every other news organization in Kansas City with FIRST word of the Mayor's dumb-ass and doomed taxpayer subsidized downtown convention hotel plan.
Sadly . . . None of the other media outlets are really highlighting the $35 Mil that Kansas City is going to have to pony up right out of the gate.
Mostly locals are focused on the pretty pictures.
Sadly . . . This project seems like it's gonna kill the skyline and it's already underwhelming most local leaders.
Nevertheless . . . Kansas City playing bell boy for a multi-billion-dollar global conglomerate is just another sign that this town doesn't have any other priorities than than lining the pockets of the ruling class.
Again, early in the afternoon OUR KICK-ASS BLOG COMMUNITY sent every media outlet in town into panic mode. Here's the noteworthy aftrermath that ensued . . .
KMBC: Reports: New convention center hotel coming to downtown Kansas City
KSHB: Kansas City leaders and development officials on Monday will announce the project.
