Option one: North Kansas City

The North Kansas City option (Think: 18th Avenue and Fayette Street) boasts a brand new stadium design with an open-air feel and plenty of seats for the Blue Crew. Renderings showcase new elements like a screen wrapping around the outside of the stadium, lots of spaces for fans to eat + drink, and even a live music area.

Coined as "Crown District" — the areas surrounding the new stadium would feature entertainment for fans + visitors alike. Plus, check out the water element and green space in the rendering. The more fountains, the better.

The final crown in this vision? Fireworks with the Kansas City skyline in sight after a Royals win, of course.

Option two: East Village

KC to its core. The East Village option's bold vision has a goal of connecting the community with a downtown-focus. This stadium (Think: 12th Street and Cherry Street) would be surrounded by KC's downtown core, featuring rooftop deck-style lounge areas and the iconic Royals blue everywhere.

With water elements reflecting our City of Fountains nickname, this stadium is fit for a crown.

Blocks away from the Power & Light District
A 27-acre development in total
