Looks like Stephens might be trying to play Keeping Up with the Waltons down on the river. Sounds like a potentially cool project for central Arkansas:

The project being contemplated for city support would be a multi-building "campus" that would include buildings cantilevered over Riverfront Drive as well as plazas and water features, Smith said. He said the project could make the city a national draw for arts — not only on a par but potentially better than Crystal Bridges, the Walton-financed arts museum in Bentonville that has been a smash hit with visitors and critics. That seems an exaggeration, given the Waltons' resources.

Cool. Both areas benefit from that "competition"

Agreed. I'd be totally fine watching the Stephens family and the Walton family try to outdo each other with cultural amenities.

It's all fun and games now, but just wait til this breaks out into a billionaire Hatfield and McCoy family feud, with private mercenary armies and cruise missile strikes.

Then maybe we'll finally get our state of Northwest Arkansas like we've always wanted.

Seal the tunnel!

They're a whole lot of us from south of that Tunnel Mr. wmr. Don't make us choose sides like ole Robert did over 150 years ago.

An awful lot of folks in the rest of Arkansas would be just fine with that.
