]]> transformKC is proud to sponsor Better Block KC 2014. Not only does our traveling exhibit feature train stations, transit-oriented development and other transportation infrastructure, but the streetscape improvements that create a more walkable, bikeable and livable urban environment around these public investments. The first/last mile is a critical part of the users transit trip, and ensuring pedestrians are safe and comfortable, that our street are inviting to all users is important. Our fifth stop brings us back to Kansas City at the intersection of Broadway and 40th Terrace. We will have an abbreviated show, but we can’t wait to see you all there!

]]> TransformKC’s International Call for Ideas came to a close on June 30, 2013 at 11:59 PM. With the great work of our team reaching out to firms and our media machine plugging away daily over the last couple months, we were able to gather over 50 projects!

The great success of the Call for Ideas and the submission of work from world-renowned architects put us in a great place to move on to phase 2. TransformKC will now work with its partners to design, fund and then build the exhibition in Kansas City, Missouri’s historic Union Station this Fall 2013.

Stay tuned for more updates and a couple of changes to our website as we transition to a Call for Submissions page to an online resource for transit’s powerful influence on the built environment. Thank you to all our participants and partners!
