Summary

Kansas City is poised to take legal action against the long-neglected Federal Reserve building downtown, aiming to either force its current owners to restore it or hand control to a new steward. Once the tallest building in Missouri, the historic structure has suffered years of decay, vandalism, and safety concerns, despite multiple failed redevelopment attempts. With the city’s finance committee set to vote on Mayor Quinton Lucas’s receivership proposal, the plan gives owners 60 days to fix it up—or face court-appointed receivership. Leveraging historic tax credits, the city hopes to revitalize the landmark and avoid its demolition by neglect, while engaging the community in shaping its future.
