Good to see star bonds still alive. Why in the hell would a menards need star bonds. JFC. Already used them to pay for and now destroy a stupid water park built in the dumbest location anybody could possibly ever come up with for a water park. And now another youth sports complex. Meanwhile the res...

The stained glass windows and rocks are now listed on Facebook Marketplace. Looks like it’s coming down.

McClatchy is already trying to sublease half the space that they had built out for the Wichita Eagle just three years ago. 181000 square feet in their old building down to presumably about 8100 now is a pretty crazy reduction. https://www.loopnet.com/Listing/330-N-Mead-St-Wichita-KS/18510963/ Video...

Re: the discussion going on in the Two Light thread, dog park or no the whole thing is just gonna be covered in dog poop anyways

816 Hotel is no more. A business license was issued for Hare Krishna KC Hotel LLC dba Tapestry Hotel by Hilton for that site. A zoning compliance letter was issued in November indicating a sale. I expect a renovation will be required to meet the new brand guidelines. Not surprising, their 316 Hotel...

I also don’t get the point of, “they’re already on edge, we have to appease them because they might go over the edge.”

Today’s events have depleted my emotions like few others I have witnessed over my lifetime. Our American democracy was literally under attack by a group of pathetic seditious “deplorables” that don’t deserve the title of Americans. They have every right to demonstrate with their street and boat par...

He will never restore that house. It appears that he's just letting it rot. I understand the sentimentality of owning an ancestral home. But if you are the architect of its' destruction, that I don't understand. Sell it to someone or some group who wants to restore it, and has the ability to fund i...

I saw that pic and wondered where the Hampton Inn sign was hiding!

HGTV has a new show called “Bizarre Builds”. The network says they’re from Missouri but lots of KC stock shots and cameos from things like KCMO trash cans.

Bigger issue for Missouri is electing people like Grietens and Hawley.

Had a great response from Parks & Rec to a 311 complaint I made. I noticed at the NW corner of Troost Park there was a sidewalk on the north border of the park that went about 15 feet and then vanished into a tangle of trees and shrubs that extended all the way to Paseo. Looked at a map that sh...

Even got its own Star article, because #journalism.

This could backfire on them too... it’s not like they get to handpick someone to replace Lucas.

They just got a $10k grant last week so hopefully that keeps the rest afloat longer. https://www.startlandnews.com/2020/08/ruby-jeans-gift/

With metro areas like NYC and SF Bay areas experiencing an exodus partly due to COVID directly and partly due to expanded work from home/anywhere allowing many to leave, I wonder if KC is attracting some of them. KC housing is getting tighter despite uptick in home construction and while growing su...
