Has there ever been a proposed MAPS project that has been backed and talked about by City leadership and other powerful orgs (Chamber) that didn't make it into the final listing of projects that went...
@Pete ....it's tactical autoism (haha) to make people perpetually have to utilize their shiny new freeway bypass (the boulevard) instead of going down to I-40 via Western. :-)
Has anyone submitted the reconstruction of this albatross for MAPS 4 (serious question)?

This might have already been discussed....but any reason they didn't build onto the existing practice field at PCN like they did at PCW? Was it simply a matter of space?
They're also building structured parking in this area (since many surface lots are being removed) to service all of the nearby museums and obviously the new Arena. The great thing about this area is...
I absolutely LOVE the arena. We live nearby and are in the area going to the museums and zoo quite a bit. They did an absolutely marvelous job matching the architectural style to the surrounding...
I agree that it would be nearly impossible for a private developer to try to use eminent domain for a private development....but I believe if its a City, Economic Development Authority, or especially...
