Re: Misc Crossroads News
Always liked this building, but I think it would be better as housing. It always seemed half empty (not sure if it is).

Re: Plaza move-ins (ongoing)
I see some ppl on social media calling for the plaza to be demolished to make way for a new Royals stadium. Really? Really!? People really don't appreciate what we have. The Plaza as a built-environment is nearly perfect. (ample parking that is all hidden away, beautiful landscaping, attractive buil...

Re: Plaza move-ins (ongoing)
No loss. That's a prime space. Hopefully they will get a less common retailer on there.msmith011 wrote: ↑Tue Feb 27, 2024 11:47 am Forever 21 is closing per Joyce Smith: https://x.com/JoyceKC/status/1762262054465913017?s=20

Re: Southmoreland
The case to preserve 4526 Warwick continues. The owners claimed 'economic hardship' to allow for the demolition of the grand old house. The case was heard at the Historic Preservation Commission meeting on Friday and was denied. The next step may be court. The house is safe for now. https://fox4kc.c...

Re: Westport
CAVA is 'temporarily' closing. Their plan is to expand their food and drink options.
Hope they do come back. I haven't been in a while, but I've always enjoyed it.
Has anything opened in the old Julep space?

Re: Westport
From what I could tell, the façade is fine. They better be able to save it...at least the front. I really love that row of facades.

Re: Former Google Fiber Space on Westport Rd
Yeah, sad project. So much retail space removed for one drive-through joint.
Also, I think they told the neighborhood they were going to retain the 'Volker' monument sign. It looked like that was the first thing they demolished. Might be that they moved it to be reinstalled. Not sure.

Re: Is the Streetcar Extension bringing new development as promised?
I'm feeling disappointed as well. I didn't think the Streetcar was a silver bullet necessarily, but I did think we would see a lot more proposals and construction by now. I'd guess it has to do with lack of available incentives, KC-Tenants sabotage, KCMO's new strict environmental regulations, devel...

Re: Midtown Area Apartment Boom
We need to get a law passed that nothing can be torn down without an approved plan and funding in place for whatever will replace it. No demolition for surface parking, period. At least within the RCP.
I hope we are all jumping to conclusions and the building is not going anywhere.

Re: Midtown Area Apartment Boom
Fences up at the old Salvation Army building on Linwood set to be torn down. Oh no! I hadn't heard about a plan to demolish. That is a nice structure. Seems like a logical conversion to apartments or maybe a boutique hotel. Nice large windows. A first level that comes to the sidewalk and looks like...

Re: Westport
Fountain Haus closed. That's too bad, it was a really nice bar. Personally I also think it was great to have such a high-profile gay bar in the heart of Westport. I wonder what happened?

Re: OFFICIAL - Prairiefire
It makes no sense to me why a College Baseball HoF should belong in suburban Overland Park except tax subsidies. Overland Park and the metro does not have a single D-1 college baseball team or any other meaningful connection to College Baseball as far as I know. Why would anyone visit this? If anyt...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium
Random question, what was there before the glass KC Star building? Was it just an empty lot? Same shit that's in the rest of the east crossroads. 80% parking and a few little barely used low rise industrial buildings. I'm pretty sure there was a taller building there that got demolished, maybe a 7-...

Re: Plaza move-ins (ongoing)
The old Palace Theater building has a TON of space for an REI. Although I'd rather see the a new theater renovate those existing auditoriums and bring movies back to the Plaza. The large empty spaces where Victoria Secret and Limited Too once were might also work if combined?

Re: Plaza move-ins (ongoing)
I noticed that The North Face closed. With Moosejaw closed too, maybe it's time for a Patagonia store!
Does anyone know if the sale went through?
