KCI Air Cargo

Post by SWFan »

Well, they have started to clear and work the land, they are even out there today working on it.  This is the land that runs along Prairie View Road from the AA overhaul base south to the first set of strip office buildings. Then if you go back on that little road to the west that curves around and becomes Amity you will see they are clearing the land all the way back there and for about a quarter of a mile or so south along Amity.  A much larger area than I expected.  Don't know if they already have people lined up to occupy or if they are just leveling the land for now.

I think the first phase is a 750,000 sq ft warehouse.

I drove down Amity last Friday morning and they were still out in full force grading the land. There was also some construction equipment over on the east side of Amity doing something.

DHL closing St Louis operations and moving them to KC. Unsure if this move will result in a gain of employment in KC or not.
