Storefront windows are being installed on the Westport Rd side of the historic portion of the Katz building today. Seems odd since there is no roof...

The Seattle Great Wheel is only 25 feet taller at 175 ft and it feels very tall and provides great views!!

The reason why Broadway is so rough is because of the plasma center. Plasma Center is a hotbed for drug activity. If plasma center goes away, the entire area changes overnight. I remember this article from the pitch talking about this area. It's from 2007 so it's clear the problems still haven't go...

Midtown on Broadway looks ROUGH. The street is absolute shit, the amount of tweakers has increased, at least a dozen businesses windows are boarded up. How is the city allowing this? FWIW I live on Broadway between Armour and 36th and can attest that since I moved in 3 years ago it has definitely d...

Anyone recommend any parking near the airport with shuttle service that you won't get fleeced at?! I use Park N Go if you use their app, you earn points towards free days I'm using it at the end of the month Fri- Fri and it's like $43. Covered(Carport), Gated and has free shuttle service (with a ti...

Even this Firms self proclaimed "Urban Design" is decidedly suburban https://hoeferwelker.com/urban-planning-design/

Renderings of the 18th & Vine Pedestrian Mall project presented at Council today, which moves our Jazz district and Kansas City toward a more vibrant streetscape. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cq9YFtUOvy9/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Not very vibrant. I don't see how this revamp of the streetscap...

Could the city use some of the 50Mil in the housing fund money to rehabilitate or offer incentives to create this into all affordable housing or is this location not desirable because of lack of transit?

There is some pretty heavy demo work going on at the Southeast corner of 49th and Main the building appears to be gutted out and builds to east have been torn down...Is that all part of this project?

Ugh Comparatively that Ability/CCC building is a monstrosity

Yes, traffic calming at one of the most dangerous intersections in KC. Eventual goal is to use the new space for people! That makes sense & definitely needed. Thanks for the insight, could make for a great little urban park like they have in Times Square or Herald Square, or a spot for food tru...

I tried but got an error "Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached."

Does anyone know what the deal is with the blocked off area along Broadway (The Washington St, Broadway 40th St/Terrace Triangle) and They put up a bunch of white bollards that appear to be permanent. Thought it was a bike lane but it’s a huge area that's been blocked off. https://www.flickr.com/pho...

Hey! New to the forum, 1st time poster. I'm originally from Omaha and moved to KC last year, and I've been lurking on the forum since lol. I was back home last weekend, and they had the Grand Opening for the Gene Leahy Mall in downtown, besides all the oohing and aahing, I couldn't help but think ab...
