This one’s getting interesting!
Sunflower Development it is. Sounds like they will attempt to renovate it into an innovation district building.

Anyone go to the grand opening? Would love to see pictures of the atmosphere!
Though I'm in Tucson, did a street view cruise and finally found the place. 505 w 18th street I believe it was. Across the street from Grinders, one of my favorite places to go when I get back to KC.

renovation of the buildings at 100 E. 20th St. and 1905 will include adding office space and retail and a relocation of city dogs creating a 17,000 sqft dog park on the current parking lot.

Was really hoping the lot would be developed to higher density, but still nice to have it activated. Plenty of nearby lots anyways

King G looks like a really nice bar versus what I was thinking of a "deli" would have. Need to stop in.

Right. Just in my mind when I heard them coming in as a deli and bar I didn't expect such a seperate and well done bar space.

Oh the memories of my grandmother warning me to stay out of the pool hall aka "beer joint" when I was a kid.

Back in those days, in small towns, kids could hang out in pool halls, bars, taverns playing the pinball machines and no one would think twice about it.

Keystone innovation team, Sunflower plan to redevelop former Goodwill building
...
Equity partner Sunflower Development Group has Goodwill of Western Missouri and Eastern Kansas' former office and warehouse building at 1817 Campbell St. under contract. The 78,060-square-foot structure, which Goodwill employees vacated in November 2019, now is envisioned as the Keystone Innovation District's first hub location.

The site could house advanced manufacturing innovation centers, co-working space for entrepreneurs, university lab space or offices for workforce development, Keystone Community Corp. CEO Kevin McGinnis told the city's Industrial Development Authority on Thursday.
...
The new Keystone hub is meant to complement the innovation district, unofficially bounded west to east by Holmes Street and The Paseo, and north to south by Interstate 670 and the railroad tracks south of 19th Street.

McGinnis said this programming will be developed around what long-term regional forecasts have identified to be emerging industry clusters — among them advanced manufacturing, robotics, artificial intelligence, biology and life sciences.
...
In the meantime, Keystone in mid-October executed a short-term office lease nearby at 800 E. 18th St., which the nonprofit anticipates occupying in the fourth quarter.

Kansas City Business Journal is reporting that the founder of Homebase in the Crossroads is helping to launch a new comedy club in the Hemingway Building at 103 W. 19th Street.

Homebase founder helps launch new comedy club in KC

Blake Miller, co-owner of The Bird Comedy Theater, spearheaded the investment group behind it. The new comedy venue at 103 W. 19th St. is in Kansas City’s Hemingway Building, where author Ernest Hemingway once worked as a cub reporter for The Kansas City Star. The Bird leased about 3,500 square feet, enough to seat 100 or more.
