Kansas City’s streetcar line lures developers — and gives them headaches

 

The very thing that is luring developers to downtown Kansas City — the new streetcar line on Main Street — also is presenting construction and architectural challenges.

Kansas City contractors need some innovation in their construction techniques.  I've seen building erections take place in European cities that have medieval streetscapes of narrow alleys and lanes, and yet traffic still flows while  skyscrapers rise above historic castellated architecture.
