Stalled while they fight the contractor in court. Could be awhile. They offered to give back the deposit of those that pre-leased. I believe they found a new general contractor already, but they can't move forward.

Re: OFFICIAL - Second and Delaware
Well, certainly a crane will have to go back up if the project is ever to be finished. But no, I take this as a sign we're in for the long stall.hartliss wrote:Could it mean a new one will go up in its place?smh wrote:2nd and Delaware crane disassembled today. Such a shame.

Re: OFFICIAL - Second and Delaware
Second time this has happened in recent times in KC. The other project was in the West Plaza and that took forever to get back on track. When it finally started up again, they demolished the building (which was a real shame) and built something entirely new and much less ambitious in its place.smh wrote:Well, certainly a crane will have to go back up if the project is ever to be finished.

Re: OFFICIAL - Second and Delaware
I sincerely hope that doesn't happen with this project. It is particularly ambitious and worthy of completion. Hopefully it doesn't stagnate too long.Highlander wrote:Second time this has happened in recent times in KC. The other project was in the West Plaza and that took forever to get back on track.

Re: Status and future of the River Market area??
Status of the 2nd/Delaware project lawsuits...
https://www.bizjournals.com/kansascity/ ... pdate.html
Is pay-walled, summary...
- Developer planning to restart in April, but dependent on HUD redoing loan
- Subcontractors making it difficult to redo HUD loan, resistance from bonding company
- Project cost went from $60M to 96M (one local real estate source says $96M doesn't make sense, not workable at $350K per unit)
- Was 38% complete in June

Re: OFFICIAL - Second and Delaware
There was some speculation that this project would restart in April. Is there any action? Has the crane returned?

Spoke to someone tonight about this. They're about to line up financing to get it moving again.

Appears to be activity onsite! Looks like Crossland Construction is the new contractor.
