........a rooftop terrace with a dog park. In 1990 a couple from California unloaded their U-haul at one of the earliest loft developments in the River Market. After the long ride cooped up in the car, the husband took their schnauzer up to the rooftop deck to get some fresh air. He decided to thro...

...work environment seemed consistently dog-eat-dog world to me for entire coast, no support for each other and dragging others down to get ahead - not likely an oversimplification. I get the chance to interact with a lot of east coasters. Both those still living there and those who have relocated ...

Seems on days like these the streetcar doesn't have the capacity to handle the traffic it has, let alone people parking and riding to the city market. So, the popularity of the streetcar is a problem...? It's a 4 or 5 block walk from endless open parking at 7th and Main to the City Market. Kansas C...

It's not a feed shed, whatever that is. It's a quonset hut, one of the most innovative and practical pre-fab building designs of all time. It's cheap, efficient, practical and I think it's beautiful. Beauty, after all, is in the eye of the beholder – whether it comes from ashes or corrugated metal....

Ever flown into LAX?

If they are successful it might reflect that people are more interested in getting a place downtown for under $1000/mo than how many sf they're getting. I'd be surprised if that sf price would hold up on larger units. This is the key factor that they appear to be exploiting. There are a lot of folk...

Hey, Repete, have you been to YJ's?

The team that's developing Pickwick seems to be hitting on all cylinders.
A lot of energy being created through their efforts.
Just what that quadrant of downtown needs.

Portia's, Cascone's on 5th, Mixing Bowl Noshery, The Diner at 3rd & Grand, West Bottoms Kitchen, Corner Cafe' in Riverside, Kate's Kitchen in Gladstone, JJ's Homestead, Morningday Cafe or Ginger Sue's....all in Liberty. Counter service and simple cafe-style meal offerings are growing rare in the...

S & J Oyster Bar was located at Ward Parkway Shopping Center, on the East side - South. It was a great concept and well executed, but only lasted a couple of years. It was rumored that the owners spent the profits partying, and then some.... Robin Williams said in the '80's that "Cocaine is...

Tar 'n featherin's too good fer the varmint.

All the best, Roanoker........ and the rest of youse too.

It was the 'Crosstown Connector' and up until the mid-90's there were still some people huffing and puffing to make this artery happen. The shift from such insular thinking was building early momentum. BTW, the term 'Crossroads' was a late 90's development. Prior to that it was 'Crosstown' and some ...

they're going to have to... historic tax credits hang in the balance!

Projects like this keeps our newly emerging terra cotta artists engaged and employed.

Parking problems are good problems to have and Columbus Park is many years from having a parking problem.

This is an old thread but my wife and I have been discussing the issue quite a bit lately. Anticipating an end to my career in the not too distant future, we looked in KC at condos all over downtown and crossroads while in town a few weeks ago. We quickly realized that if we wanted a dog, we better...

Not being sarcastic here, but are you referring to the Pierogi?

It's a very specific and different take on 'dumplings'.

Word also says that the Muehlebach was found 'not eligible' for Historic Tax Credits, by the state of Missouri. No credits, no project, no building. Why was it found "not eligable"? I don't have that answer, if one is even given. I anticipate that they simply did not accept the premise fo...
