also, if the data points i've heard are representative, the HOA fees are something like 60%—or more—of the monthly rental payment for the same unit. which makes buying hard to justify even if there is some kind of long term renters credit.

the website had information regarding buying units as recently as ~6 months ago. they redid their website this winter and that information appears to be gone. i also know of at least one inquiry into purchasing a unit around summer 2016, and 909's office provided information. the putative buyers cho...

goddamn virginians.

only one park in the MLB has centerfield even slightly west of due north from home plate, as far as i know (houston - has a retractable roof). rulebook suggests eastern view.

have seen a few groups hanging out in the collection space while i've been in belfry — is that a private event space, or just overflow for the belfry crowd?

probably all ladies. here is a 1914 newspaper from chicago hinting at some of the issues relating to these entrances — pretty hard to read even zoomed in, but appears to be a marketing ploy that at least in some instances may have been used in a misleading (sinister?) way http://archives.chicagotrib...

business expense theory makes a ton of sense. and if that's the intended/expected use, that's pretty cool. on the hybrid apartment/hotel issue — interesting question. some back of the napkin math makes it look like you would have to hit something like 40-60% occupancy throughout a year depending on ...

"The Power & Light District store will focus on the Kansas City Royals, the Kansas City Chiefs, Sporting Kansas City, the University of Kansas, Kansas State University, the University of Missouri and the University of Missouri-Kansas City."

right, listed those as two different people — [kelce] & [guy on top of WST].

i'll throw in the current owners of 909 walnut's penthouse in the mix, so now we're all the way up to three.

the sole two-story "penthouse" unit on what looks to be the NE corner of the 24th/25th floors is a 1558 square foot unit with balcony on the 24th floor. i bring this up because it is the first floor plan in either of the #Light buildings that i thought raised the bar above "new constr...

"The Continental": a 154-unit apartment building; ground floor retail (10k sq ft); otherwise, "pretty much gutted" except for the 5th floor ballroom and 7th floor swimming pool http://www.bizjournals.com/kansascity/news/2016/12/15/mark-twain-tower-conversion-continental-apartment...

but leave the racks of cornhuskers etc. out in the suburbs. Woah, woah, woah. What's wrong with my Huskers? :P nothing that isn't also wrong with the other schools i mentioned :D the rally house locations i've been to either have too much stuff packed into a small space (plaza, town center, 119/ren...

i remember there being a truck outside P&L during the world series run that was selling royals gear. any chance that was affiliated with rally house — early scouting effort, perhaps? i am guessing it was probably just some opportunistic and questionably-licensed outfit, though. i'd much rather h...

improvements, especially for CBD-area residents: more diverse food options. something like 10 of the ~18 options between 13th and main & 14th and grand are interchangeable generic bar food, albeit at different price points. get some diverse food options in there. i don't want one there, but a da...

looks like the tiger tail is still open? or they left the neon lights on this week

anybody else see the roman candle display from the rooftop of the P&L building last night? looked like a handful of people firing them from the roof towards the north

or the people that live downtown and spend time down there. this! adds! nothing!

figured it had to be ready soon, they hired away 909 walnut's leasing guy last month
