Actually it wouldn’t be terrible if it terminated at like the fifth floor, but it looks abandoned with all the boards and such at the moments
It's called a Longlines building, and there is one in nearly every major American city. One was just bombed in Nashville. It's there for a reason, and isn't going anywhere. They're purposely built to look as described. I'm guessing you weren't around for the years where it had a massive array of antennas and satellite dishes stacked on a tower on the roof? If you want to complain about "ugly", then that was the time.

This one was not at all bad prior to the 1971 addition(the top half of the building without windows).

Re: KC metro growth and migration stats
I've read on some opinion pieces how the pandemic was going to end the US trend towards urbanism as people would want the social distancing of the burbs. Perhaps that's not happening after all.earthling wrote: ↑Fri Apr 16, 2021 8:44 am A LinkedIn report claims KC in top 10 for net arrival gains since pandemic...

BLS reporting we added 20,000 jobs in March. I think every category grew or was stable. No category really decreased

Do they have industry breakdowns? Curious what is coming back. Just retail/entertainment or other? It does seem like nightlife is coming backnormalthings wrote: ↑Fri Apr 16, 2021 5:57 pm BLS reporting we added 20,000 jobs in March. I think every category grew or was stable.

Re: KC metro growth and migration stats
Given the major BLS revisions lately would take the numbers with grain of salt but they are showing significant growth in KC ProBiz services, the one standout category. In particular they claim KC STEM jobs have shot up recently...
KC Metro - Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services over 10 years
While STL metro is dropping sci/tech jobs...
https://data.bls.gov/PDQWeb/sm
KC's hospitality jobs are improving. Information (telcom) getting worse, Tmobile merger apparently not benefiting KC (yet, if ever).
Even if they're struggling with accuracy lately, the Feds and financial institutions make decisions/recommendations on BLS data.

Pre-covid, TMOBILE had plans to launch a 1000+ job experience center in KC. Not sure if those plans are still on the table or not.

No, I saw it. I was just giving you grief for not bringing the info into the thread and making me click the linknormalthings wrote: ↑Fri Apr 16, 2021 7:30 pmThat page has KC for the past few months with industry break downs. What are you seeing instead?
Edit: try scrolling up?
The job sectors look well positioned considering the situation- especially since leisure/hospitality really hasn't even starting showing recovery yet. I think that will change very soon (as long as covid trends stay the same).
