I do not often respond because your photos leave me speechless


Get some sleep, I know what that is like and it sucks.

Charlie Pikes Fluffy Fresh at 100th & State Line is my favorite. Don't have time to read the whole thread right know but i did notice some posters are not big fans of the maple long john  :shock:, well you'd be wrong. When i was a grade schooler I'd skip lunch get off the bus early at 99th &...

I'm not a Realtor and do not pretend to know the protocol, however, project that I have been familiar with have in fact put reservations in the system as pending.

Angel wrote: That's interesting that they're putting those in MLS as pending since no one's gone to contract yet.  At least not that I know of.

Isn't that the standard operating procedure with projects like this? (This is a question, not a statement of fact)

MLS shows 57 Active & 24 Pending.
That info does not necessarily mean that there are not more units on reserve. 
I hope this project happens.

Thought this might be of intrest, if it belongs somewhere else feel free to move it.

Downtown residential development has slowed significantly or stopped in most (not all) downtowns across the country it is no different here.  These things cycle and right now we are in a slow period. Don't give up hope it will not last forever.  When SC & Kansas City Live open in the next year y...

^^^ I'll let you educated me, How many kids a year fro the KCMO school district are turned down for tutoring.  How many hours of free tutoring do they need that they don't get. Please provide some evidence that free public supported private tutoring has raised the eduction level of the inner city st...

^^^ knucklehead, I went to private tutoring at Evans Learning Center (still there at Gregory & Main I think).  The large majority of students there were underprivileged kids from inner city Kansas City schools.  Their tuition was paid with grant money from the government and included money incen...

Are you serious?

One post up I f'd up and incorrectly stated that the green space is in the NW corner, it is in the NE corner, sorry.

What I actually was saying was that there is absolutely no reason for them to be crying about lost views because the tower wouldn't be north. It would either be NW, W or SE. Actually the tower would be built to the southeast of the current tower. The current tower is in the NW quadrant, the common ...

You also have the Park Hill School district covering parts of the KC metro area up north.

True, and Platte County R-III, which is basically the developments north of 152Hwy.

I think families are adding rooftops in KCMO north of the river....isn't that the area of highest building permits in the entire metro right now?  Schools? The Liberty and North Kansas City school districts serve the rapidly growing part of Kansas City north that you are referring to.  In fact the ...

I wonder if those shiny new condo towers they promised DT around P&L  (the cordish "w hotel" one, and the 3 on the south end of P&L) had the plug pulled on them too...kevorkian-style. i suspect they'll never get built.  sucks. You are probably right, but maybe the first one (the &...

The hotel and garage would have already been part of the approved TIF for Briarcliff.  What the old council approved just before the new council came in was a Super TIF for these projects.  And the excuse used for the rush job was that there was some "secret" agreement made that this part...

couldn't find the link but search April 07 KCSTAR Collison

$3.5M would be the finished cost, not the sale price.  Sale price as a shell was $847,300, this is per the MLS.

any guesses on how many current Alameda residents were original buyers in 1985? besides, while the current owner's association bought the rights to stop a second tower, that doesn't mean market forces, owner changeover, changing demos of the bldg, etc. won't lead to the association selling those ri...

When they bought their condos in the Alameda Plaza building, there was no long-term "right-to-views" implied.  That is why they are having to purchase the development, and/or "air-rights" to the adjacent parcel to protect "their views." The original deed didn't include...
