(1/3) > >>

I wonder if Mr. Bass Pro gets in on this since theState finally got off their duff and approved the tax kickback the ASKED FOR IN 2016?

This is a good start. I still maintain that the northern end should be developed in to Tivoli type park with similar rides to round out the whole thing and a Soarin' style ride down the Mississippi be part of the  Museum overhaul or aquarium. This comes along with Lowes announcing a retrofit of a 00 North Main in to a new 600 room hotel and two new adjoining office towers as part of the project to go with the 300 million dollar renovation of the convention center and 200 million plus revamp of Memphis International.

2021 and 2022 will have bitg changes in store for Memphis.

Memphis was recently named #1 of the Top 5 places in the World to visit in May by USA Today.

Like Nawlins..... express the hate Midwestern white boy, it's cute.

Anyhoo,  the new Malco is coming along. Really want to see how they pull off recliner seating and balcony/mezzanine seating and how the roof top theater comes out.


--- Quote ---The hotel portion of the city's ambitious Central Station mixed-use project closed on its financing in December and is preparing to open in about one year.

The old train station building is set to hold 124 rooms, a 3,500-square-foot restaurant, a 6,700-square-foot ballroom and 8,000 square feet of non-restaurant retail space — along with the Amtrak station. Next door, an under-construction, seven-screen Malco movie theater is set to include balcony seating and electric recliners; a restaurant and bar; and an eighth, outdoor screen and lounge on the rooftop. The theater is set to open near Thanksgiving, Malco senior vice president David Tashie said.
