Re: One Light - 13th & Walnut

OK Cordish, bring on Light 3 and 4 announcement. Has Cordish not already said that they will be breaking ground on 3 Light before 2 Light is complete? To me, that's as firm of a commitment from Cordish as we're likely to get in the near term. So, what we're really waiting on, is for Cordish to ackn...

Re: 18th and Vine

I can't help but think the success of most of those projects is contingent on the success of the last one. What does 3 mil get you these days? I agree. I'm afraid they aren't doing enough at the street level to make the "connection" to the Crossroads. Any connection should extend at least...

I noticed this yesterday as well.

Does this pose any issues with MoDOT? Surely, any encroachment over MoDOT ROW would have been previously cleared with MoDOT, right?

Re: 13th and Grand tower

Could the project be moving forward? Possibly? There was a fairly thorough write-up about the project in the KCBJ today: http://www.bizjournals.com/kansascity/news/2016/04/21/copaken-brooks-downtown-tower-tif-sprint-center.html Looks like Copaken Brooks could be running out of time for this specifi...

So I did some searching, and figured I'd resurrect this old thread *since this thread has previous discussions on installing solar panels on Bartle Hall. To m...

Re: Three Light

The skyline is changing. Keeping it static means no progress. I wish more people would get on board with this mentality. I'm all for having a "good view" from the Liberty Memorial. But who's to say that the "good view" isn't a view that did not exist 20 years ago? I really hope ...

Construction elevator for the south building came down late last week. From what I've been told, the south building is aiming for a July opening.
