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/ |

This is the location and Costco did a feasibility study on this site when it was first developed long ago when the Midtown Costco was under construction. They passed and said Northland wasn't ready at that time.

Sweet. Hopefully this might also mean some of the northlanders will just stop coming south of the river. I'm sick of hearing them trying to make small talk in line for groceries by bitching about how they don't understand why there's a Joes on Ward Parkway instead of north of the river.

So essentially where Circuit City failed? I live in Thousand Oaks so I was wishful thinking this was more the I52 Zona area. Awe well - still pretty easy travel down I52 - beats the Costco midtown trips. They need to hurry and get that thing built, need to buy more economy scale boxer briefs and 100 count spicy dill pickles.
