Ready for a Comeback
From the onset of the pandemic, the story of Downtown Kansas City has been one of incredible resiliency. In the face of great challenges and uncertainty, we remained steadfastly hopeful because of our unrelenting dedication to building an environment that offers density, walkability, and quick access to essential resources all within a modern mixed-use business district.
Since March 2020, more than 50 new restaurants and retailers have opened their doors throughout Downtown and our residential population continued its exponential growth. Now home to 32,000 residents, Downtown continues to be the fastest-growing neighborhood in the region.
In addition to our amazing residential growth, 72 businesses relocated or renewed their lease in Downtown Kansas City – together these companies are moving Downtown forward and setting the stage for a remarkable comeback.
We’re extending the strength of our community – Downtown Kansas City – a vibrant live-work dynamic where residents and employees have jobs, entertainment, community, and life’s essentials at their doorstep.
Office Market
