Old cafeteria being razed near downtown park

From the Kansas City Star - 22 March 2005. There is a thread below regarding this building. Too bad it wasn't saved...

Here's a link to the story:

Hopefully something spectacular goes in its place. The building next door is huge, so maybe a similar structure to keep the theme of the block. I haven't seen it in person, so it's hard to know.

Wack - Honestly, I'd kinda be surprised if something were to go there. It is a sliver of a building in a block that isn't really long.

As you've seen from the other thread's photo, there is the large building to the left of this one (viewing from the street). To the right of this building is a small park that is only 25 yards or so long. It may make more sense when you have the chance to see it in a few weeks.

In any case, it's too bad that this building is going.

The article mentions a drive through retail project. What exactly is this said project? I hope it isn't like a drive through restaurant type building.
