Abstract

The article focuses on the Kansas City Royals' plans to remain in Missouri by developing a new $1.9 billion downtown stadium on the Crown Center campus, funded by $800 million from team ownership and public sources. The Royals partnered with Don Hall Jr. and Hallmark Cards Inc., who will invest $1.1 billion to develop an 80-acre stadium district surrounding the new ballpark, though Hallmark will not receive ownership in the team. The Crown Center, owned by the Hall family since 1967 and home to Hallmark's headquarters, will retain its offices alongside new retail, residential, and office spaces. This development follows the Royals’ previous tenure at Kauffman Stadium since 1973 and contrasts with the Kansas City Chiefs’ move to Kansas after a failed joint funding proposal.
