As Panasonic’s battery plant prepares to supercharge job growth along Kansas Highway 10, Eudora has a plan to electrify the area’s tourism scene, too: a 5,000-seat entertainment venue and a slew of new retail and dining options. The proposed development, which would be just south of K-10 and could cost between $40 million and $50 million, is still early in the planning stages, Mayor Tim Reazin told the Journal-World — so early that it doesn’t even have a name yet. But he and other Eudora leaders have high hopes for this entertainment district project — they envision the entertainment venue hosting a variety of concerts and sporting events, and they say it could generate $5 million in annual revenue and attract half a million visitors a year.
