Kansas City MO – Two years after groundbreaking, a grand opening was held Tuesday (10/24) for the new $138 million H&R Block Headquarters at 13th and Main in downtown Kansas City. The 17 story oval shaped tower is covered in green glass, but the inside is as striking as the outside. As KCUR's Laura Spencer reports, two hundred fifty pieces of art are now on display.
