Community Builders of Kansas City is continuing progress on its major developments: Offices at Overlook, The Rochester on Blue Parkway and Blue Parkway Sun Fresh.
Offices at Overlook is CBKC’s $80 – $100 million mixed-use district comprising 180,000 square feet of Class A office space, 19,000 square feet of mixed-use space and 155 multi-family units. CBKC is in the process of working with Hufft Projects to finalize the space plan and actively recruiting tenants for the space. The property, located on 11 acres, will transform the corner of Swope Parkway and Chestnut Avenue.
The Rochester on Blue Parkway is CBKC’s $12.6 million active living, intergenerational multi-family development comprising 64 units. The first market-rate apartment complex east of the Prospect in decades recently received approval by the city council on its Urban Renewal plan and the final plat currently is under review at the City.
On June 30, 2020, CBKC became owner/operator of Blue Parkway Sun Fresh following the retirement of the previous operator. Improvements already have been made such as freshening up the store’s lighting, layout and flooring and reviewing and updating product mix and pricing. In addition, signage is being installed around the store introducing the new leadership team and offering ways for customers to provide input for future store plans. CBKC’s commitment is to turn Blue Parkway Sun Fresh into a best-in-class grocery store that delivers the quality shopping experience the community deserves. Watch for additional ways to provide your input – safely in the COVID-19 environment – on store product, customer experience and supporting services such as banking and pharmacy. In time, the community’s input will inform plans we carry out for improvements throughout the store.
