Don't post those on Reddit you'll have the FAA drone mafia on you.
Then they'd hate to see the drone photos from 1640ft up over Parkville and the Plaza and the questionable photos taken elsewhere. As long as I'm within a blue zone, I'll be fine. Atlas 303 barely fell within the blue zone. Red zones are normally dedicated for airport approaches and take off zones, so the drone wont even fly in those areas. Same with large government facilities (jails, Air Force bases, the NGA in St. Louis, etc). Stadiums are sometimes put in the red zone if a game or event is taking place.
Yup I've got a drone, I'm more making fun of the reddit police who always bemoan anybody with a drone pic from downtown.
Like Grid said, get an app like kittyhawk to get auto LANC approval just to be safe (and legal) that's what I do.

Development plans with some renderings, floor plans, and elevations are now available within the permit located here.

Unfortunately, it appears they dropped the 2500 sf of commercial space which activated the corner and instead opted for an oppressive blank wall.
I’m not surprised it was removed in order to fit some more parking spaces as a result of gaining 10 units. The decision might’ve also been made since this property will continue to sit below a highway bridge on a quiet side of the neighborhood, so maybe the development team determined it wouldn’t be worth it to include a space? I don’t know, but I wish they’d include a small space here for a small grab and go market.

Despite the lack of commercial I'm still happy to see this one progressing. River Market might have its own little skyline one day!
It's important that new proposals get taller in order to maximize density. Not many spots left to build new that aren't already claimed by developers. Now's the time to start reaching for the sky. I swear, if the neighborhood gets a stubby 3-4-story proposal as it's next project, I'll become the ultimate NIMBY because that is no longer good enough.

It's small, but I love this piece of the development
The plan calls for a 66-space, two-level garage with one floor below grade. The nine levels of residential will be above, with one apartment planned for the ground floor. That unit could be converted to retail use depending on demand.
“It could easily be converted to a small retail/coffee shop space if the need exists,” McKee said. “It has separate access, windows at street level and could be a really cool boutique space.”

It definitely grew taller. Design changed some.
A few edits have been made to the design. More windows were added to the ground floor to not make it so blank. Landscaping intentions added as well. New rendering perspective added.
