What does everyone suppose the timeline is on announcing an actual location?

Great photos. I love the perspective. Not views you commonly get while driving or walking around downtown. Thanks! That Two Light-to-Waddel Reed HQ wall will be impressive when 3 Light is finished. Just wait till 4 Light, the park over highway, and two Cordish buildings in the Crossroads are comple...

Expect a completely different location to be announced. Still downtown, but not east village. Things are moving fast. Location? I can’t say exactly but all the partners involved met recently and renderings were shown. I’m getting my information from the pitch deck presented to the partners. I’m sur...

Expect a completely different location to be announced. Still downtown, but not east village. Things are moving fast. Different as in 18th and Vine? A new location that previously has not been part of the discussion? Not sure if it’s been discussed before but west of EV. 18th and Vine is dead from ...

We should focus on capping the south loop, creating and further expanding the green line, including to the stadium, and further integrating the stadium into the existing neighborhood with a new development, we should also ask for serious funding from state and national to help upgrade our infrastruc...

Amazing!!!!

Just want to put this out there: project 1 of my TODs will start specialized neighbor meetings (for those immediately next door to the site and those who will be most affected) soon along with meetings with Council Members. I believe the concept that's been envisioned (on paper, mind you) will set ...

I don't understand the negative attitude on here toward the Arabia exhibit. Have you been? It is KC's 3rd largest tourist draw. Interesting stuff. People love it. It's apparently not in the best facility or location, either for the city or the museum. That doesn't warrant the "hasta la vista, ...

City scene and the west plaza neighborhood are complaining about Cocina47 ugh Still can't believe people pay for CityScene when the Rag is free. I’m happy to support Kevin in his covering KC Development, as well as sourcing info from the rag, they can coexist well together He also sources informati...

South Waldo = 75th -435
South South Waldo = 435 - Blue Ridge Blvd
Then it’s Martin City

Where is Mayor Q? Like many other city officials, scared of the blowback from speaking out even slightly against KC Tenants and their methods. Yeah Q wants to be Gov/Senator of MO. Optics of pushing back against KCT probably wouldn't play well Probably would play well to be honest, there is zero ch...

All this development, the new build by Kemper, the new park, green line, and the rehab of the bridge. Hard to imagine how good the West Bottoms will look in Ten years

Looks good for the most part, really sad to see the weld wheel on the demolition list though

Hmm gonna pass on that one.

Here's the fundamental problem for suburban LRT: You have to drive your car to park at the rail station. That's 10 mins. Then you sit on it as it stops every 2 mins at about 50 stops until finally an hour later you end up in downtown. Then you have to walk or take a streetcar to your exact destinat...

altitude.

Guadalajara is comparable and Mexico City is much higher.

Can’t go without Mexico City though

What about closing off main except to streetcar and leaving walnut open

What about closing main except for streetcar travel instead.

I would actively support them if they were focused on saving KCs history rather than trying to save parking lots in Midtown
