On June 9, the highly anicipated and long awaited Bloch Building will open to the public. The completion of the building as well as renovations to the original Nelson-Atkins Building signals a new era for the Museum and for Kansas City. The city is bursting with new life from a $6 billion rennaisance that includes a new performing arts center designed by Moshe Safdie and the Kansas City Power and Light District, both of which are scheduled for completion in 2007.
Once again, I believe we can say that "everything is up to date in Kansas City." Or at least it soon will be.
