Breaking News:Patrick and Brittany Mahomes’ KC Current unveils new $800million plan for apartments and public space next to historic CPKC Stadium… as city looks to solve NFL, MLB venue issues

With CPKC Stadium the first stadium specifically built for a professional women’s sports team, the adjacent project will draw more than $200million in private funding, the team said.

The Current’s press release also noted that the future public space will be set up with movie nights, food festivals, live music and more throughout the year.The future of the Chiefs and Royals in Kansas City was thrown into question earlier this month when residents of Jackson County, Missouri , resoundingly voted down a sales tax measure that would have helped fund major renovations to Arrowhead Stadium and a new downtown ballpark.

Royals owner John Sherman and Chiefs president Mark Donovan acknowledged long before the final tally that the initiative would fail.

More than 58 percent of voters ultimately rejected the plan, which would have replaced an existing three-eighths of a cent sales tax that has been paying for the upkeep of Truman Sports Complex – the home for more than 50 years to Kauffman and Arrowhead Stadiums – with a similar tax that would have been in place for the next 40 years.
