Having the phase 2 terminus at 51st/Brookside would give access to the Whole Foods too! I really hope this gets going. I'd love to see and ride all the way from City Market to UMKC!

#yaaas! Final two clearances have been approved. They should start the conversion for the 301 Room Embassy in August. Now, put a Dunkin Donuts and McDonalds in there!

From the permits issued and the land clearance, Union at the Riverfront should start its build out shortly. This will be exciting to see get off the ground. I know there's no streetcar connection, but they need to make a devoted bike/pedestrian lane over the Grand Bridge heading into the City Market...
