Check this clip showing off timelapse construction of this trendy location within walking distance of nearly 1/2 the crackheads in Kansas City . . .
"3435 Main is Kansas City's first modular apartment building. The apartment "pods" were manufactured in Nebraska and shipped to Kansas City one by one. This style of construction creates two major benefits for you. Each individual unit is it's own apartment, so they were double insulated on the top, bottom, and sides. When stacked side by side, this creates four layers of insulation which is unheard of in the traditional apartment build industry and provides premium seclusion from your neighbors. The 2nd main benefit to you is efficiency and quality control. You can rest easy knowing that every single one of these rental units were built with minimal construction waste and measured perfectly in a facility . . ."
Also, it's right next to the 2nd scariest Burger King in all of Kansas City wherein the exceptionally angry employees are genuinely surprised that anybody is optimistic enough to place an order.
You decide . . .
Everything's up to date in Kansas City!
ReplyDeleteThe boutique retail spaces at the bottom will soon fill with check cashing shops and a pop-up Jackson Hewitt.
ReplyDeleteAnd don't forget the Cricket phone store and a nail salon.
DeleteLooks awesome! What craftsmanship!
ReplyDeleteAnother triumph of Soviet-style architecture!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering where all those Russian architects ended up after the fall of the Soviet Union.
What imagination and creativity!
When does the apartment project made out of shipping crates get its TIF and tax abatements?
A city filled with cheap schlocky ugly crap.
KCMO is on the move!
Millennials want to live in shipping containers and have driverless cars.
ReplyDeleteMore time for staring at their phones!
Very weird location. The $1.49 10-piece nuggets next door are actually not that bad. The rip-off is when you order a small coke to wash them down.
ReplyDeleteThese little pup's will go like hotcakes .. hate to to what it'll look like in 10 years or so.....scary .
ReplyDeleteWeez be competin' wit Zilicon Valley wit diz zhit!
ReplyDeleteThey will live in an outhouse. If told it's trendy.
ReplyDelete$870 a month for a 418 sq foot closet er studio apartment. Plus a monthly water bill that's almost as much as the rent. What's not to like?
ReplyDeleteThat Burger King is closed half the time because they can't keep enough labor to cook anything....
ReplyDeleteOh, but they'll have a streetcar at their front door by 2023 when the building is falling apart.
ReplyDeleteThe critics are referring to the neighborhood around the apartments. This construction technique is very solid. It's the tenants that will cause the problems. Hope it succeeds, though.
