Re: Troost developments

I had heard that the person behind the Troost Village had died and now family not interested in project. Don't know if this is true or not. Having a charming row of vintage storefronts as relics of the first KC suburban shopping district would amp up the revival happening between Troost and 71.

Re: Troost developments

Still nothing happening with apartments at 27th, nothing at Linwood, and the "Troost Village" blight on the east of the 3100 block.

Re: Downtown Baseball Stadium

Easy peasey. Would change a few votes to aye. Any hotel,apartments,offices across the street will most probably (it Is Kansas City) be sitting on a parking podium so there would be still good views into the ball park.

Re: Westwood - 47th Street

A good example of attractive traffic calming, quite opposite of the visually ugly traffic calming on 31st.

Re: Condos near Federal Reserve

And that last low rise section standing was the psych ward. I was changing residences and wanted to get rid of an aquarium collection so I dumped my fish into the psych ward aquarium. My fish promptly ate the resident fish as patients watched.

State must be more lax about security. The MO court is on Oak just behind T-Mobile and very close to the Star press.

Re: OFFICIAL - New KCI Terminal

I am older than them and cannot see how someone forties could have good memories of the old terminals. TBH, I do have good memories in the late seventies and early eighties of the terminals. Back before people that flew thought flip flops and jorts were flying attire.
