Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

I understand the concerns about preserving the unique character and artistic integrity of urban areas like the Crossroads... Wrong. You don't understand. I've read enough of your posts to be certain you will never understand and we will never be on the same page. I don't mind that we have different...

Maybe they can take all that copper and make Royals souvenir pennies for all the businesses that will be displaced.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

I remain disheartened that so many members of this forum support the wanton destruction of organic urban development for a baseball stadium when there are other, reasonable options. While money may satisfy some folks, for others it may provide little or no consolation. So-called successful real esta...

Re: Is the Streetcar Extension bringing new development as promised?

Here's a bummer. The Office Depot at 4201 Main will become a Total Wine and More https://compasskc.kcmo.org/EnerGov_Prod/SelfService#/plan/f8ef3070-725f-4609-8189-4cd90b5e38c0 That sucks. Wonder what the next closest option is for those basic office supply needs (i.e., cables, paper, hard drives, e...

Do the research, people. Connect the dots. Royals – Mahomes – Chiefs – Kelce – Taylor – Vegas – Cordish. The whole thing was rigged.

Re: Overhaul of Kansas City incentive policies

Exempt certified historic rehabs from most or all of those restrictions (WBE/MBE, prevailing wage, affordable housing). We need to do everything we can to save our historic structures and it's not very safe to count on MO state historic tax credits.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

I'm still happy that the stadium is going downtown at least. The demolition of the existing buildings is not great but also mostly are parking lots and low-rise structures. Hopefully, this means the surrounding surface parking lots will be developed quickly. I hope the same thing but in all likelih...

Re: OFFICIAL - 909 Walnut

Will be interesting to see who buys the building and what becomes of it. Joel Worcester moved down the street into Wallstreet Tower, purchasing a condo and the lower level of the building. If you want a good laugh check out the tax history of the lower level units. The HOA allowed them to be re-dee...

Back when I used to use a bank drive through, my dog would go crazy when she figured out where we were going, because they would always give her treats. Now I do everything online and my dog is bored.

There was a plan in place in 2001and possibly earlier. And the Funkhouser reign didn't help things.

Re: SomeraRoad West Bottoms District

They’re New Yorkers. All talk and full of bad acting. They look down on Midwesterners and see KC as a way to make a quick buck. Wouldn’t be surprised if this isn’t the only major tear down they pursue I sure hope not but once they try to make their way through the MO DED historic tax credit system,...

Re: Is KC Tenants destroying the development future of downtown KCMO?

Some people on here like to call anyone they don't agree with trolls or some other term. They don't like to see peoples opinions that differ from their own, so they wish they could block them out. Not to get too political, but KCT is a political group. I don't think it's the opinions that some foru...
