i think that KC's downtown/CBD skyline is far more impressive than STL's, Arch or no Arch, but i think that STL is much more impressive in an "urban" sense. i think it's really cool how you can drive around STL, not even close to downtown (not even SEE the arch) and still be in a very urba...

god, has anyone here attempted to drive on I-40 in the west st louis county/st. charles county area recently? I-40, from where it breaks off 70 until about MO-141, has historically been a narrow highway with stoplights (think 50 highway out into the country in MO). now, since west st. louis county a...

KC_Jayhawk - i know about nordstrom and hall's, but what is "CC?" i'd love to see a DKNY store here. it seems like maybe our hometown girl Kate Spade could persuade her fashion friends to open stores in KC. :D also, what's the deal with stores like Lord & Taylor and Neiman-Marcus? they...

KC could definitely support one. in fact, i'd like to see more trendy clothing stores on the plaza in ge...

i havent ever seen a raytown post on here, so i figured i'd put one up since i grew up there and live there when i am home from school. growing up, i always thought "ok, raytown, a kc suburb. cool." it wasn't until i reached high school and started going to other schools for debate tourney...

since i've been delivering mail in independence as a summer job, i think i have a pretty good grip on independence housing (esp in the 64055 and 57 zip codes). one thing i have noticed about independence is that large neighborhoods of old, small ranches that are, let's say, not in the best shape (tr...

it would be nice if metro north could somehow "resurrect" the mall and become comparable to Oak Park (or better), but i don't really see that happening. really, for a city its size, KC has a ridiculous amount of high-end retail. Oak Park, with Nordstrom, Town Center, with much of the plaza...
