There is a small bridge that goes over Jordan Creek just south of the Hotel.

From the KY3 news article, “The lease agreement going through 2038 would ensure the 2012 Texas League Champion Springfield Cardinals remain in Springfield where they have played since the affiliate’s founding in 2005.”
Love that they are called the 2012 Texas League Champion Springfield Cardinals. Team hasn’t made it to the Championship in 11 years. Only two appearances in 18 years and one championship.
Real shame that the city is footing this huge bill for a very bad team. I will say I frequent games here. Drop the prices of tickets and beer and I’d be a little more on board but unfortunately prices will only increase after the huge payment.
Put the vote to the city and it would not pass.

How did the council vote? Can’t read due to pay wall. Who voted yes and who voted no?

I shouldn’t say “bad experience” it did tick me off but the crowd started to fight back and yell at him. Only problem is there were kids in the theater and this dude had no filter.

A lot of good memories at that theater. I lived downtown for awhile and we could pregame before the movies and walk.
One bad experience, some jackass would not shut tf up durning Finding Nemo 2. Cops got called and the crowd cheered as he was removed from the theater.

Can’t forget the loss of Chopsticks on glenstone. My favorite Chinese place 2011-2012. Definitely a hole in the wall but the price was great! Actually good food and large amount for how cheap it was.

Reply to Best generals chicken here? by Dry-Cost-3860
Peking House has a thick sweet sauce general chicken. It’s unlike any I have ever had. I haven’t been there in awhile but that’s what I always got. They became a little pricey too.

Unfortunately the library severely underpays. A position opened last year that I could have loved and been very good at required a masters degree and paid 34k a year :/ it’s a real same because Springfield has some amazing libraries. Great part time jobs though

Reply to comment by AsuhDude333 in Anyone that lives around Chesterfield Village/off Scenic or the surrounding area know what the periodic whistling is? by cesd3967
I know that sound. Sounds like someone screaming in rhythm. It’s the whistle from letting out steam of their boilers. Happens all the time. OP was talking about a different sound. Seems like military planes from the comments.

Who is we in this situation? I welcome the expansion of Springfield. I’m sure a lot of people do. Plenty of space all around/in Springfield without destroying historical homes, jamming up one of the busiest intersections, pissing off a whole neighborhood. You’re really missing the point of there being plenty of other places for development. Like right across the street. A few blocks down, Tai Peppers has been sitting. The strips on both sides of TP are empty. There is an empty bank down the street further. A vacant lot behind Culver’s. South of the corner where subway and the flower shop use to be. Using your knowledge, let’s tear down parts of the mall and develop there. Sears is empty. It’s a huge lot. Old Toys R Us is empty. These are already zoned for business development and are literally sitting empty. Or is it not OKAY to tear down a run down department store to preserve the historical architecture.

The problem is the will of the people and how it directly impacts them. The whole neighborhood highly opposed this yet the city said okay do it. When does it stop? When will the citizens voices matter? It won’t stop. Don’t give me the BS either that the citizens of Springfield will benefit from a new yoga studio, retail store, and over priced pasty shop that will go in there. There are literally open spots in the strip mall across the street. For that matter, openings everywhere across the city. The city only cares about you because you are able working walking taxable entity. If you don’t fall in that category, get fucked. Money always over morals. It always will be this way. Downvote me all you want but I’m fucking right and you know it.
