Wow, that’s pretty impressive and awesome for KC. I wonder what the 800 Grand development will be. The lid park is also really cool and has me hoping Omaha’s will come about.

Someone on KCRag is saying they have seen multiple renderings of 800 Grand have been anywhere from 18-35 stories.

Would love a building like 4 Light on the 10th and Harney lot.

And that's where it looks like it will end up, 25 stories:

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - Kansas City’s skyline is getting bigger. Starting next year, construction of a new high-rise apartment building will begin on the north side of downtown.

The 25-story, 385-foot-tall tower will be built at 800 Grand Avenue, where a parking garage currently sits. The developer, BR Companies, is excited to break ground in the KC market.

“You have to have the right environment for investment,” said Ryan Sullivan, BR Companies’ Chief Development Officer. “If you think about Kansas City and you’re playing bingo, you yell out ‘Bingo!’ pretty quickly.”

The tower is expected to have more than 300 units, as well as 24,000 square feet of retail space and parking. Construction is expected to begin in the second half of 2025.
