Re: OFFICIAL: Port Authority Riverfront Project
Milhaus is pretty active. They do have some projects still going on, but it seems like a number of their plans have either stalled or died. 31st and Troost seems like it has had zero movement. Linwood and Troost may be coming back (partnered with UC-B) but it has been stalled for quite some time. T...

Re: Southmoreland
There is a new item on Dodge's construction bidding site that may be related to this location. It is listed in 64111-1822. I'm not sure how large that extended 9-digit zip is, but the only results I'm getting seem to point to this site. Pre-design for a "High Rise Apartment Building" $15-2...

Re: Martini Corner near 31st/Gilham
Anyone have drawings or a rendering of this project? I'm curious what the ground floor looks like (as always). These are from October 2020, but from what I can tell, there haven't been any updated plans released: https://i.imgur.com/RKJtWa3.png https://i.imgur.com/ZtkPqv8.png https://i.imgur.com/tJ...

Re: Renovations of apartment buildings along Armour Blvd.
I'm pretty sure the sign is up correctly (as of a couple days ago). I'm not sure if it was put up incorrectly at first or if that picture is just a rendering.

Re: Renovations of apartment buildings along Armour Blvd.
Is there something wrong with that size? I did the majority of my grocery shopping in NYC in stores much smaller than QuikTrips. I have no idea if this grocer will be worthwhile, but small format stores definitely serve a purpose and are very useful in an urban environment. KC needs many more like t...

Re: Renovations of apartment buildings along Armour Blvd.
It looks like Urban Cafe will be one of the tenants for the NW corner:

Re: Downtown New Residential Units
I'm not sure how many of these are imminent (and some of these are probably at least a couple years out), but here are some projects that I can think of off-hand that I believe are still alive in Downtown (excluding "greater Downtown" and focussing more on the core): River Market: Oaks (fo...

Re: Martini Corner near 31st/Gilham
I would love to see Exact (or anyone competent) take over the Superior properties. Unfortunately, I'm not sure that is what is being discussed. I think it is mainly about El Torreon/Cowtown Ballroom. That is what used to bring in thousands of people on the weekend. It could also be about the buildin...

Re: KC metro growth and migration stats
And St Louis City just keep losing a lot. I would imagine even St Louis County is losing people now. All the "growth" in metro StL seems to be migration to exurbs. Yep. In the latest estimate, the County lost .78% in the prior year. The metro as a whole lost about .4%, or 11k people. http...

Re: NFL Draft
The World Cup will be vastly different than the NFL Draft. The World cup will last 1-2 weeks of acitivity in and around the city? They haven't announced any details on the schedule, but I would think a bare minimum of 2 weeks (not including any teams training here before the World Cup). Typically, ...

Re: NFL Draft
Sounds like the draft hurt small businesses. World Cup will do the same. Yeah, that's a terrible take. The draft may have hurt a handful nof small businesses, but it definitely helped others. I'm sure it was more of a net positive. And the World Cup will be an entirely different animal. For one, th...

Re: Westport
Looks like the shabby building on the SE corner of 39th/Broadway caught fire last night. Sounds kind of extensive. Maybe this will lead to demo and development of something more urban and appealing. https://www.kshb.com/news/local-news/fire-crews-respond-to-blaze-in-midtown-kansas-city-thursday-nig...

Re: KC metro growth and migration stats
The headline for that article seems to be making some big assumptions. Jackson County does not equal Urban KC. Urban KC is what, maybe a quarter of Jackson County's population? I would think that Raytown, Independence, Grandview, SE KC/Ruskin Heights, could all be loosing population. I don't think w...

Re: Troost developments
The vacant lot on the SW corner of Troost and Brush Creek is now up for sale. This is just a bit south of the KC Outlook development, so hopefully there could be some synergy with a good development on this lot. There was a proposal for a dialysis center on this lot, but I'm glad to see that has fal...

Re: World Cup 2026 at Arrowhead?
The format for the 2026 World Cup is being changed to groups of 4, instead of 3, meaning more matches. Seems to be good news for host cities! The 11 U.S. cities chosen last June had been operating on the assumption that they'd each get five or six games. That estimate has now been revised to six or ...

Re: KC gets decent share of touring shows
Os Mutantes at Record Bar, Robert Plant and Allison Krauss at Starlight and Built to Spill at the Madrid are a few on my agenda for Spring.
Also just saw that the New Pornographers are playing the Truman in April.
