Have we completely ruled out the possibility that kotsy controls the weather?

I haven't been quite as ingrained in the development industry here as I had been in TO, and the scale of development is way way smaller, especially now because NZ is in yet another bad recession manufactured by its own sh*tty conservative government. We've definitely had our own share of...

Hey, could be worse... Train tickets to 2026 World Cup at MetLife Stadium from NYC to cost more than $100

Maybe the 2 million sqft convention centre can go there

This would be nice, a space without cars elbowing their way in.

I feel like I trust the word of a groundskeeper whose job it is to maintain grass in a stadium over... some rando on an internet board.

1 short paragraph but had to shove a couple campaign slogans in there for good measure.

90% of it is aimed towards the millionaires in the suites and lounges because of course it is lol
