Probably doesn't mean anything, but I did see some surveyors on that block a couple weeks ago.

https://cityscenekc.com/hallmark-sellin ... -location/“We believe it will be sold for someone to develop as a multi-use project with multi-family residential,” said Stacey Paine, president of Crown Center Redevelopment Corp. a Hallmark’s real estate subsidiary.
“Obviously, apartments would be the main thing. It’s hard to find a good apartment development site.”
“I think a downtown ballpark would work there, but I don’t think that location is going to wait around that long.”
the goal was to make grand the high point and scale down to the east and west. if you built higher there you'd need a lot of structured parking since it's not well served by transit today.KCPowercat wrote:Why so low there? It's the bottom of the valley
We can build stadiums pretty low though
https://cityscenekc.com/plexpod-acquire ... ice-space/Plexpod has acquired the Think Big Coworking operation at 1712 Main St., the latest development in the fast-growing downtown shared-office space market.
Think Big Partners opened its co-working space in the historic Globe Storage and Transfer Co. Building at 1712 Main in 2015.
I talked to a business owner in crossroads who confirmed this was the case. Looks like the men's clothing selection downtown is improving, at least on the higher end. An expansion of an existing store is also in the works. Both will be open about Q1 2018.KCPowercat wrote:East and West store permit at 1828 Grand...could it be this place?

I mentioned this elsewhere, but I think the new restaurant in the Czar Bar space will be operated by folks associated with Domo in Brookside and it will be Korean BBQ focused. I heard this over a month ago, so I could be mixing up memories. I was told then they were still trying to figure out what to do with a space in the back of the restaurant, and that it could be a cocktail area.KCPowercat wrote:Couple new liquor licenses

As we know, single use anything is hard to afford. I picture more ground floor spaces that can hold a cafe during the day that services local workers a and residents and the chairs and tables be put away and the space functions as an art space too. The same kitchen can be used for catering during a gallery event.Midtownkid wrote:Funny how it came full circle...but Haw is one of my favorite galleries so that is awesome!DaveKCMO wrote:haw will take the place of the kemper at the crossroads: https://cityscenekc.com/crossroads-deja ... ery-space/FangKC wrote:The Kemper is closing its' Crossroads location.

Keep the Crossroads for the arts!
Yeah, that's why I posted the pic of KobiQ... didn't seem to exist online anywhere, which is weird anymore.KCPowercat wrote:Couple new liquor licenses
