Re: OFFICIAL - Waddell & Reed - 14th & Baltimore

We need to build another Class A now. I guarantee we'll miss out on something if we don't have it ready to go.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

Two land owners - City and BCBS so that's a plus. However, is it big enough...? I don’t think they’re leaving their current office. They’re just expanding to another building too. Not accurate: "The 18-story building will allow Blue KC to consolidate all on-site employees into one location&quo...

Re: OFFICIAL - Waddell & Reed - 14th & Baltimore

Blue KC targets completion of its interior buildout and relocation by early 2025. I guess I'm happy it is fully leased out. shame it won't be a new employer downtown Ok but what does it matter when they are just expanding from another site still? They’re still gonna be in the shitty building too. T...

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

On Thursday, Platt said he’s disappointed that the Royals haven’t communicated their vision or needs, or even which of many proposed locations they’d prefer. “The biggest frustration that we’re feeling is that we haven’t been given a lot of information from the Royals directly.

One of either Strata, Platform or Podium should start looking to break ground now since we have no Class A office space left in downtown.

Re: OFFICIAL - Waddell & Reed - 14th & Baltimore

They’re moving their HQ a half mile north. Strange move in my view. Wonder what happens to their current office. They’ve been saying they were looking for a new office for a while now, so it makes sense. My hope is their current office, and neighboring parking lot, can become a dense residential ne...

Re: TIME TO FREAK OUT AGAIN ABOUT CONFERENCE REALIGNMENT! THE BIG 12 IS DEAD! MAYBE!

At some point we need to approach the Big 12 and poach them to Kansas City, and move them to some class A office space downtown. There’s no reason to be in Dallas anymore since this is a Kansas-led conference now. They need to atleast try it. Kansas led? There's still going to be 4 Texas teams vs 2...

CBRE Senior Vice President Mike Eckert said office tenants want to align with the “workplace of tomorrow,” which might mean moving to a nicer building in areas like the College Boulevard submarket.
