Looks like I lost some of the post.

The area they are proposing is already a popular shopping location for this section of the city and has the infrastructure in place to handle large volumes of people. The other side of the interstate features a large shopping area with several dozen shops and about a dozen restaurants. The location is 10 minutes from I-70 and about 40-50 minutes from KCI airport.

So, what is your take on the project? Is this a cross between a LEGO Imagination center and a LEGOLAND Park? From the looks of the one working link you have, the image of the flyer, the graphic is of the park only. Where would the shopping be located? Or does the shopping mean only LEGO.

This is quite a surprise to me. I bet others had their jaw drop like mine. Not that I am knocking Kansas City, Missouri (which by the way, you might want to explain briefly for others the dual state nature of Kansas City, MO) but, this is really only a regional place for travel. While I am certain adding a LEGOLAND MO to the list of parks would be great, foot traffic is certainly, I would guess, going to be lower than LEGOLAND CA.

Did they mention this as part of any larger expansion scheme? Like to Florida, maybe? (fingers crossed).

Keep the community up to date on this. Certainly, it might be a few years away, but its not to early to start planning a convention in Kansas City!
