Celebrate Port KC Pipe Dream Down By River

We've talked about this ongoing scheme for quite some time and, tragically, our readers don't seem convinced. 

The big question . . . 

WILL LOCALS FLOCK TO RIVERSIDE AND IGNORE SURROUNDING HIGH CRIME AREAS OR THE GHOSTS OF SO MANY DEAD HOOKERS?!?!

The $800 million initiative includes a 2,000,000-square-foot development with office, retail and approximately 1,000 multi-family residential units, of which 10% will be priced at 50% of the area median income.

"Today is the latest milestone for Berkley Riverfront," Jon Stephens, Port KC CEO, said in the news release.

Now that dream, which has been years in the making, is coming to fruition."
