Isn't that under construction next to City Club?

I honestly don’t know. I don’t think so but could be wrong. But if it is kudos to them as I feel the concept would do well

BOK Financial has purchased part of the Grand Place redevelopment site near 17th and Grand in the Crossroads and plans to build a 10,000 square-foot branch bank there.

The project, which is expected to open in early 2023, will feature a full-service banking center, offices for the BOK Financial Corporate Trust division, as well as a large presentation room with access to an outdoor entertainment space overlooking downtown Kansas City.

Two years ago, 3D announced that Overland Park-based Tria Health would be its first tenant, occupying about 17,600 square feet.

Bryant said he’s in negotiations with eight potential additional tenants and expects to have additional announcements in the next few months.

I don't see much energy near the old Star building, just surface lots and Scientologists. Where is the demand? Do Scientologists even eat?

And I forget about Crown Center's food court the same way I forget about Oak Park Mall's.

Fang I'd still much rather have this connected with City Market. And if they really wanna do it, just do it inside Steamboat Arabia now. That whole area would blow off the charts if they could do this. Why do we always have this mindset to split up our assets?
