Westside Flats boutique-style living draws in residents

Westside Flats, one of the latest multifamily additions to KC’s premier downtown, westside neighborhood seems to be a hit with tenants - if its steady-climbing occupancy numbers are any indication.

The EPC Real Estate Group development, which includes 29 high-end apartments that sit above a secure, structured parking garage at the SW corner of 17th and Madison, and four townhomes just to the south, has seamlessly integrated into the existing community, while providing a very “boutique” feel.  

Amenities include an expansive rooftop patio with downtown skyline views, 24 hr-fitness center, streetside patio with communal indoor/outdoor fireplace, secured/covered parking and high-end finishes throughout all units. 

Perhaps the best amenity of all is the convenience of walking only 100 yards to KC staples such as Blue Bird Bistro, The Westside Local, Chez Elle Creperie, Goat Hill Coffee, Los Alamos Market Y Cocina or Fervere. 

“Westside Flats has been such a fun and unique property to be involved in. Nestled in the most perfect location that allows our residents to support local, within a neighborhood just blocks from downtown Kansas City,” said Nicole Yates, market specialist for EPC Real Estate Group.

Another 5-minute walk to the east will put you at a First Friday event in the Crossroads or Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts for a show. 

“The project has been a huge success thus far as we saw immediate demand. Kansas City recognizes the unique lifestyle opportunity at Westside Flats, and consequently we now have a limited number of units remaining. We expect these to go quick,” added Yates.

The multifamily development opened this spring and EPC anticipates it to reach full capacity later this year.

“It has been exciting to see this one come together. With ongoing input/support from the city, neighborhood, and design team (Klover Architects), this has been a true collaborative effort that’s resulted in a great project that we are all extremely proud of,” said Austin Bradley, VP of development for EPC.
