Costco finally coming to the Northland
About damned time....
KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Kansas City, city officials revealed plans Friday for a massive economic development project in the northland. The plans include a new Costco and possibly a new school. Clearing land has already started for the two-part project. The first part of the project is a new Costco at the corner of 88th and Platte Purchase Drive. The warehouse club hopes to open November 1. If the deadline is missed -- Costco will open in April, 2017. The second part of the project includes the donation of 88-acres of land to the Platte County R-3 School District. The land is north and west of the Costco development. There are no plans yet -- but the land could possibly hold a new high school and middle school. "I always joke, I've always heard about developers they give land to school districts, but I've never actually had it happen to me,” Platte Co. R-3 Superintendent Mike Reik said. “To Platte County schools and our children. But in fact it has happened, and we couldn't be more grateful for that." The project is near the Twin Creeks Development. The plan is to develop all around the Twin Creeks Development and bring more economic growth to the northland. http://fox4kc.com/2016/03/04/city-of...n-in-november/ |

That area has been getting groomed for development for a while Bowser, expect to see more built in that area north of 152 in particular.

Oh yeah, it will be boom town. One day it will be solid houses/businesses all the way to Smithville. Would love to own about 500 acres in that area right now.

This is more 152 and I29. I grew up on the corner of Barry and Congress across and when they first put I52 in before it was opened used to ride my bike up and down the highway. That was pretty bad ass for a 10 year old.
Pretty stoked for Costco coming to my hood - it's about time that area developed more. Need some restaurants now like they have out in Prairie Fire...
