Re: Three Light
I think they should make an "edgy," "hip" and "really cool" statement and make the sign a 3, like Namaste or ohm.
That would really mix it up - confuse people while being condescending at the same time.
I like it.

Re: Three Light
I have to say, North Oak. That "3" sign looks positively Arabic to me.

Re: Three Light
They probably told Cordish to hold off on the announcement in revenge for how mean we were to them yesterday.

Re: Three Light
No Worries. Is there a new announcement date?
Also, I noticed that a Four Light Twitter Account was just made.
What is the timeline on that project?

Re: Three Light
I watched the finance committee yesterday where they talked about three light. While they may release renderings and make an announcement at any time, this initial funding agreement is just the first step of several. PIEA needs to approve an abatement (which is opposed by the school district) and then the council needs to approve the abatement recommended by PIEA. That in itself, is a multi-week/month process. If the abatement is not approved at the assumed level (100% for 10, 75% for 15 i think), Cordish may have the ability to obligate the city to increase the $17.5 million currently contemplated in the ordinance yesterday...so it could take even longer. That was my understanding at least. So in other words, it could be several months still until any movement is made on this.
Additionally, the reps from Cordish did say they are intent on moving forward with four light as the hotel/apartment combo. They did not make any comments on the timeline. The agreement voted upon by committee yesterday did, however, lower the city's parking obligation to all Cordish residential developments from 1.5 per unit to 1.3 per unit....which is good for several reasons.
And by the way, yesterday I learned or was reminded of something i had forgotten- The city is obligated to provide parking for ANY and ALL Cordish residential projects within the districts for 99 years from the start of the agreement. I assume that means the city is also responsible for maintaining and rehabbing those structures during that period....HOLY CRAP!

Re: Three Light
I've been assured the parking entrance for this project is on Truman Road, not Main Street.

Re: Three Light
I believe the only entrance for Two Light is on Walnut? That's a pretty small impact (compared to Grand).KCPowercat wrote:Shame two light wasn't the same.

That's good for ALL the reasons. CBD does not need any more monster (subsidized) parking structures dedicated to one user.

Re: Three Light
1.3 per unit is still a joke given how much they stop public from parking in their lots

At 300 units, that's 390 vs 450 spotsKCPowercat wrote:1.3 per unit is still a joke given how much they so public from parking in their lots
So it's one floor less of parking, give or take.
Isn't Two Light shared public parking?DaveKCMO wrote:

Re: Three Light
Why the attack on me? It's mindnumbing some of the decisions made in design of these buildings and district.
