Saw this in the news today, says they are already $5 million in the hole and going to lose over another million this year.
Pretty sad that KC can't get their stuff together, this building is amazing and would be such a shame to board it up again.
For those not familiar with KCUS, in the late 70's and 80's they built office buildings adjacent to the waiting room on land where the tracks use to run under the building for passengers to board. Now with these buildings in the way, there is no way for the building to reach its full potential as passenger rail hub.
