KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) – Those who live and work in the Crossroads may have been wondering what’s being done to the historic KC Star building. Developers say they are finally making progress on redevelopment.
“The Kansas City Star was one of the great innovators of its time. You know, it just had a cool story to tell,” Erik Wullschleger, 3D Development, said.

According to developers, the $95 million project is being funded through a combination of funding sources including grants and tax dollars.
