Could they change up the design a bit for 3 and 4? KC is going to start looking like Moscow...

I do love these glassy, light & airey additions to KC's skyline.
I can get pushed out because I'm "too much" for some. Then, an observer of me comes suddenly swooping in to "fill my shoes." People are always more accepting of the new one, because their feathers aren't truly ruffled by them. (Yawn) I can count on it every time.

Look at this awesome, big picture I found of Kansas City with the new One Light building. That particular angle is one of my favorites of the city. From that angle, the skyline's eclectic mix of skyscrapers seem to stand together in an extra bold & striking way, making a strong & exciting statement, a collection of sharp needles & upward-thrusting towers & peaks pointing straight to the sky. I also like seeing the street's traffic dwarfed and looking almost toy-like compared to the tall One Kansas City Place.

Glad you like it. I have tons of pictures of KC (and other Midwest cities). I should share some...

First new semi tall buildings in downtown KC in a while. Seems like most of the new developments in downtown KC is in and around the P&L district.

They are so clean, crisp, light and airy... That's the words I always "pull from the dictionary" regarding them. I do love boxy, white buildings with clear or grey glass. It's like: You can't go wrong with that winning combination. It always looks nice, and can probably fit most any town out there. (The Sunbelt cities look great with white buildings, adding to the brightness of the sunshine & warmth. The cities in the north look great with white buildings, because of the cold, frost & snow.)

Looks like it's proceeding. It will also be the tallest of the apartment towers (1,2, and now 3 Light) built by Cordish.

construction started but no pics yet. Having 3 continuous blocks closed with construction is a fun way to kick the decade off
