If I remember, yes but it was only glass. This appears to be part of the structure itself so I hope it stays but you never know.

Re: Three Light

There's a rendering I don't think we've seen before in this document prepared for the Chapter 353 board. FYI - It is marked as a preliminary rendering, but it has the building at approx 30 stories, and a roofline that tilts eastward over the top 4 stories KCDowntown I like it. At least it is not a ...

Thanks. Hopefully something is proposed on that lot soon so that this camera view comes in handy.

Re: St. Louis/CWE studio gang skyscraper proposal

This broke ground today (Commencement Ceremony) and it was a nice day for it. Sunny, Warm and a Breeze made it really nice. In 20 months, this lot will be gone and a new, 36 floor building will stand in its place. Also, MAC must have some other projects planned for St. Louis.

Re: Fixing p&l traffic backups

Looking out my window tonight reminded me of this thread. So much going on here: A long line of cars attempting to get into the Midland garage (from both directions so both directions are blocked), cars blocking the intersection at 12th street, and the streetcar has take 15 minutes to navigate one ...

Interesting that they already have the base piece in place. Seems way to early for that but look on the Brightside, there will be two (or 3) tower cranes within two blocks of each other!

Re: Three Light

For comparison to another Cordish project, all of Ballpark Village Phase 2 in St. Louis is listed at $260M. It includes a 29 story apartment tower, an office building (don't know if there is anything official, but renderings look like a 9 story building with ground floor retail), an 8 story 216-roo...

Re: renovate hanna, demolish lane... are we still doing this?

A couple of things... 1. I will miss the old design of the Lane Building. Even though I don't live in KC, I always loved the old design of the building. 2. They better have a replacement building ASAP. A parking lot along Main Street is a sorry excuse for such a prominent lot. LOCATION, LOCATION, LO...

Re: OFFICIAL - Loews Convention Hotel (formerly Hyatt)

Today, St. Louis gained a Loews Hotel. It will be a Live! one. In regards to this one in Kansas City, this won't be a Live! By Loews but rather a simple "Loews" brand.

Hey StrangerThings, Any word on if Cordish is looking into possibly doing office space in downtown. I know that they have announced a tower in St. Louis ala BPVII Sorry to butt in but yes, they announced an office building last October.

Re: Does the Plaza need a drastic change or on the right path?

Crazy idea, but I think Country Club Plaza could lose some streets going through it. Preferably Nichols Road, Pennsylvania and Central (47th has to stay, it is common sense the same with Broadway) Make it more Pedestrian Friendly. This way, you can have a safer atmosphere with more "small shops...
