@chris_stritzel used this platform to ring the alarm on this demolition, then amplified by a ton of passionate historic preservation and urbanist folks here, too. @BrianDavidPlatt then swooped in by sending the right people to save this beautiful building. Great work, all! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Vienna's first Dutch-inspired bicycle street is nearing completion on Argentinierstraße; totally transforming the 1.3 km corridor.
140 car parking spaces were removed to significantly improve the walking and cycling experience; while adding abundant trees, planting, and seating.
@trevoracorn@chris_stritzel I’m naive and ignorant to most of this stuff but we are in the design phase of building a new home in KCMO and multiple engineers have told me the new code will add about $25-$30k to an average SFH build along with likely a few extra months of permit review.
@EricWBunch @chris_stritzel Are there any additional protections for buildings on boulevards? Seems like preserving our historic buildings on them would help maintain the integrity of the boulevards system!
@KCParksBoard
Kansas City needs to quickly institute policies that will protect this building a future ones like it AND streamline processes for grants/codes to renovate historic buildings
