Platform Ventures owned an $80M warehouse in south Kansas City planned as a 7,500-bed ICE mega center. The deal was killed by community pressure — student walkouts, mass protests, a general strike, and the city council blocking permits within hours of ICE touring the facility. Port KC (which had given the developer a 20-year tax exemption) severed all ties. Platform Ventures withdrew February 12, 2026.
