Plaza III To Close
I remember when Carl took Ed Hartwell there
https://mobile.twitter.com/afgutierr...12541725413376 Live right by the plaza and hardly ever go. There's not much although I hear a Shake Shack is coming. |

That picture is a totally different restaurant than on the Plaza. On the Plaza in the 80's ans early 90's. it had a huge round table underneath then they moved it to Leawood..which is the picture I showed. I posted this but.. This is M&S's dome but I don't think the time frame fits. The domes are radically different. Last edited by cooper barrett; 02-21-2018 at 10:12 AM.. |

If it was just a few years ago, probably McCormick and Schmick

I don't go to the Plaza anymore because of the thug assed kids that run around near there. That might be part of the problem for the Plaza. Maybe not. Might be just me.

Good. I've been waiting on Plaza IV to be released forever.

I worked auto parts from around 80-81 until the mid 90's. Were you in a store or warehouse? |

I typically pronounce Plaza II with a long "Plaaaaaaza"; similar to James Bottomtooth from Family Guy....or any of the other rich guy characters.
it makes it sound way more classy. |

Craig Glazer wrote a piece about this in 2014 almost predicting P lll's demise. Shopping closer to home, dining closer and with alcohol enforcement... Lack of places that draw, It's becoming national brands from food to bars. There are no clubs, hot bars anymore. There is the eastern influx which tends to keep people away too. Crimes in Westport and Plaza areas do not exist in Leawood and OP. But basically his point has been that there just isn't a reason for the 20-40 somethings to go there anymore when the suburbs have built the complexes to compete with the Plaza and compete well. In closing he said the Plaza needs superstars to attract younger crowds and having a reason NOT to drive through Westwood to get home is reason enough to stay away. |

Many Winsteads have died a slow death. The carpet in many has been there about 15 years too long. Guy seems to really milk his biz and not put anything back into them. Plaza III has been dyeing for years.

we used to go to M&S each year for our anniversary until 2 years ago when we saw kids everywhere and witnesses a group of them jumping onto the hoods of each parked car along the street. Plus, we used to go there for coffee & to visit the B&N a few times a year
****. That. I haven't been in that area since. |

while it was the Bristol the walls were brick - silly that they'd REMOVED the brick - I'm not sure the reasoning - certainly it wasn't to IMPROVE the cosmetics.
