Thinking back to 2020 when I could have bought a small ranch for mom for <$250k and the monthly payment would have been less than $1,000

@KnifeRandal @pcriley You can say there’s a homeless problem sure, but the city was literally in a state of disrepair 20 years ago. It is light years different than the late 90s.

Took the streetcar this weekend with my GF (her second time) and the homeless rider situation was pretty bad. Long story short, she won't ride it anymore. A lot of us urbanist types will put up with the disorder but we forget - many, many people won't.

Every transit nerd — the urbanist who tell us over and over how much they love public transportation— has to realize until you stop this sort of crap, and make stopping it your number one goal, you and all your train love are doing nothing but annoying everyone else.

@cocainewillie If you had $5 Million that you had to invest in KSU Athletics, how would you spend it? Shoring up the football roster for one year? Building a basketball roster over 1-3 years? Try to buy a natty in WBB, Baseball, T&F? Other?

@Kcroyals1564221 I don’t know who “they” is but the streetcar’s capacity barely makes a dent compared to the capacity of a stadium.

@pcriley I’d be surprised if they don’t push for less parking and more street car

@Kcroyals1564221 I seriously doubt more than 10% of the crowd on any given game will be using public transit to get there - and most that are already use public transit.

@pcriley This is why I am not sure the downtown baseball stadium will work. Not sure people will go for putting their families on public transport to get to and from the ballpark

The California Collegiate Summer League has exploded into my consciousness. Imagine catching a Walnut Creek Crawdads and a Philippines Baseball Group double header on a Saturday. Absolutely electric

@BarsottiKlb Yeah, i do want to be sensitive to the homeless situation (and I know it's bad) but public transit is 100% not a housing solution. Symptom of a problem, i suppose

@pcriley It's a layered conversation, as you probably know. I had the opportunity to look at one of the worst camps locally, by the train tracks, with an outreach worker. About a month ago. I knew it was bad, but it was truly awful.

@BarsottiKlb RideKC/The City needs to get serious about enforcing rules or charging a small fare to keep some of the troubled homeless riders off. I know many mean no harm but if you can't keep public transit safe, no one who has any other choices will ride it.

@pcriley To be honest, I haven't been back on the street car in months because of a bad incident. It's hard to rattle me, but I got rattled.
