Re: Old KCPS HQ - 12th & McGee

If this building could be made to look anything like this, it would be awesome! Top skin on this building is hideous. Love the bottom bot looks like it could use a serious cleaning. I was actually think more that this cladding would be for a potential addition to the south. I'm assuming, if the bui...

Re: Old KCPS HQ - 12th & McGee

Conversely, this feels like a building where adding new wings in glass could work really well. Purposefully highlight the difference in styles. https://www.technopolis.ee/app/uploads/sites/2/2018/09/1.jpg If this building could be made to look anything like this, it would be awesome!

Re: OFFICIAL - Loews Convention Hotel (formerly Hyatt)

Still wish this were one 40 story tower rather than two 20 story towers in an L shape. It will still be nice though. I just hope it does what it's supposed to do. It seems like other similar sized cities are still building more hotel rooms than KC near their convention centers. Indy just announced ...

Re: H&R Block's Second Tower?

The garage at 11th and Main has been prepped for a tower for decades and nothing has materialized. Till there is a tower crane up, I tend to expect nothing will happen. This is not just in KC, but in just about every mid sized city, but especially KC. With Cerner building 4 million sq ft and the Sp...

Re: 18th and Vine

wonder what inspirational words the late GREAT John "Buck" O'Neil would have for us after this tragedy. I don't know but, I imagine something like this: Good will always conquer evil, and, maybe this evil can be made good again too..........................Uh huh ! He always inspires me!

Re: UMKC Conservatory of Music considers move to downtown

On Kevin Coliisons site someone asked the question why 17 & Broadway was not available. He said it was not clear but, he would report on it as soon as he finds out.

Re: UMKC Conservatory of Music considers move to downtown

I was very much under the impression that a downtown campus was part of the impetus for the streetcar running to UMKC. BAP certainly is not my pick of sites but, it beats the hell out of 63rd street.

Re: OFFICIAL: Port Authority Riverfront Project

Omaha has built several nice 12 to 15 story appt. towers on their riverfront. Think we should demand at least a 7 story minimum the rest of the way here.

Yes, thats the lot I was asking about. The design Safdie had for the ballet was very cool as I remember, resembled the PAC.
