That rink in KC was designed and broke ground more than 10 years ago. Not old in "reality" standards, but halfway through its lifecycle in "new sports facilities", which is really annoying.
I know you said "mostly without substance" so I'm not arguing with you at all, but I think it's really "completely devoid of substance".
