Big things are taking shape in Gardner as Brinkmann Constructors, Panattoni Development Company, and Cushman & Wakefield break ground on the first phase of Crossroads Commerce Center — a massive new industrial park set to make waves in Johnson County’s booming logistics corridor.
The 467,000-square-foot, concrete tilt-up warehouse will rise on a 24-acre site, serving as the first of eight buildings planned for the master-planned development. Designed to meet the region’s growing demand for Class A distribution space, the facility brings modern functionality, scalable infrastructure, and strategic positioning to one of the metro’s fastest-growing areas.
“Our team is very excited to begin construction on our first building at Crossroads Commerce Center. This project is our firm’s first in the Kansas City market and we recognize it as an important opportunity to put our best foot forward," says Nick Cook, Development Manager at Panattoni.
The initial scope also includes extensive mass grading and new drainage and water retention systems — critical components that will support the future buildout of the entire park.
Gray Design Group is serving as the project architect, bringing a streamlined, tenant-flexible design that blends efficiency with long-term adaptability.
Crossroads Commerce Center is expected to attract tenants across manufacturing, distribution, and logistics sectors — all looking for a modern home in the heart of the Midwest.
