Explore the effects of gentrification and development on communities and the need for honest rebuilding to address social issues.
Urban development brings promises and hopes of revitalizing neighborhoods, improving infrastructure and boosting local economies. However, like the flip of a coin, we often see residents displaced from the very communities they helped build due to rising rents and higher living costs.
Join BXKC for our next Rebuild Honestly open forum event featuring community development and real estate leaders from the Kansas City Area Development Council, Crossroads Real Estate Group and Keystone Innovation District. Panelists will discuss the growing pains of Kansas City’s development efforts, the impact of current projects on the Black community and what their organizations are doing to create access and opportunity for our community. Attendees will also learn about how they can be more engaged with projects that impact our community
