Re: 95 Metcalf South update and former Sears

Wonder if the Sears building will be torn down or retrofitted for offices? Plans show two levels for it.

Re: We are getting a new airport!!!

Flew out of KCI yesterday afternoon and overheard a SW gate agent talking to a flight crew member. They said the new terminal is apparently ahead of schedule by a magnitude of months. Because of that, discussions are supposedly being had about moving the airlines over in waves (rather than all at o...

Bradley coming soon. Bradley, the commercial washroom equipment supplier? Bradley, the corporate law firm? A satellite campus for Bradley University?

Re: Downtown Overland Park

Downtown OP is pretty dense now. They could use a BRT or streetcar line. I'm a bit surprised there isn't a "if KC can have one, we can have one" mentality with the streetcar. Johnson County is way too car centric, despite these recent developments. There won't be a rail system in the coun...

Re: Quiktrip

I'll be curious to see if they keep that promise. They said the same thing about the store at 67th and Nieman in Shawnee when the new QT was being built on Shawnee Mission Parkway. Then they closed the Nieman Road QT a couple weeks after the SM Pkwy. location opened. They won’t. It’s one of those “...

Re: Quiktrip

An employee told me today that the current QT at Roe and 435 will stay open, even after the new one is finished just around the corner at Nall and 107th. In fact, they are about to remodel the Roe store (not enlarge it). The employee said in Independence there are QTs on opposite sides of a highway ...

Re: Three Light

Wehrenberg or bust. Not sure if you knew, but they're owned by Marcus Theaters now and people in St. Louis didn't really like that when Marcus (from Milwaukee) came in bought out our hometown theater company. I did! This was very upsetting in Springfield as well. The people loved the Wehrenberg bum...

How do you know its gone because nothing says that building is going away.
Yes, because the new buildings they are proposing (including the pickle ball one) replace the current one that Half Price Books is in.

Re: We are getting a new airport!!!

I like them all. The fountain kind of has a hidden jesus cross in it though? I was hoping for a little cooler fountain one. To me, it's disappointing that the fountain is "fake" (not an actual water installation). So I guess the City Of Fountains will not have a water feature in its 1.5 B...

The QT site work next to Top Golf is well under way as well. Looks like the store will face west with the pumps aligned along Nall.

Re: OFFICIAL: Zona Rosa (tenants & phase II)

It also doesn’t help that the city completely undermined this type of development by approving traditional suburban retail just across the highway and single family homes right next door. You do realize that the "single family homes" were there decades before Zona Rosa was built? But yes,...

Re: The Glade - 87th & I435

This thing is a ridiculous island in the middle of a near-wasteland of old mining areas and warehouses. A mile away or so are some of the most shoddy apartments in the city (off Bannister near 71). But kudos for thinking Bold I guess.

Already a rumor that the Plaza Nordstrom won't go forward. Doesn't necessarily mean they would keep the mall location though.
