I still don't understand why they don't build the area up around the stadiums. There are plenty of woodland areas that can be made into destination places. Bad zoning, I'm guessing?

I think you've got your facts backwards. Sprawl is the enemy of light rail. And there will NEVER be shit around the stadiums. NEVER EVER EVER. Nor should there be. It's in a terrible location...pretty much like everything else in Kansas City.
Airport 30 miles north of town? Check
Casinos on the river north of the city? Check
Stadiums on the east side of the city? Check
Theme parks next to the caves? Check
Kemper Arena in the west bottoms? Check
The Sprint Center/P&L is the first thing the city has done right since...well...ever.
