They’re sending this to a public vote? For what reason?
Citizen petition…. Hearing rumblings about this assume it will be filed this week or next.

Re: OFFICIAL: H&R Block HQ

Floors 3-10 put up for lease. https://www.loopnet.com/Listing/1301-Main-St-Kansas-City-MO/31458092/ That's more than half the whole building! This is also why you focus on housing instead of trying to entice businesses back to the urban core. https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/the-ceo-of-h-r...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

In that rendering, why is that building on the right a totally different scale? Is it just an optical illusion or is this rendering just super inaccurate? Those 18th Street improvements are pretty amazing. Really hope they can still make this location work. office floors are significantly taller co...
