New Business to Take the Place of Smouse House | KCII Radio

At the September 20th Washington City Council meeting, the council unanimously approved the major site plan for Scooter’s Coffee which will move into the lot that the historic Smouse House occupied. The demolition date for the Smouse House has been set for Monday, September 26th.

The Washington Historic Preservation Commission approved the demolition on June 20th, citing its long-term vacancy, safety hazards, and the current estimate that it would cost over $1.5 million to renovate.

However, Council concerns are restricted to codes and ordinances and not to debate the type of

Former WeWork CEO Adam Neumann’s New Real Estate Company Is Planning A Digital Wallet That Stores Crypto

Updated: When Adam Neumann revealed his new venture to WeWork-ify the residential real estate sector Monday, backed by a $350 million investment from Andreessen Horowitz, the announcement was long on hype, and short on details.

Forbes has learned that the company, Flow, intends to launch a digital wallet that can store crypto – among other currencies, including US dollars – in addition to the real estate management software it announced previously.

Davidson Goldin, a spokesperson for Flow, said the planned digital wallet cannot be used to make rental payments for Flow-managed apartments using cryptocurrency it may store, but can be used for outside purchases like any other wallet.

Goldin confirmed Flow’s plans for a wallet after Forbes learned about recruitment efforts for the company this month, where a recruiter was promoting a role at a “ground breaking venture that will be one of the largest implementations of blockchain in the economy, involving a multi faceted approach that will be spearheaded by Adam Neumann ( ex-CEO of WeWork).”
