Leawood's Park Place adds seven new tenants

Seven new local and national retail tenants will soon call Park Place Village, a 484,002-SF office and retail property in Leawood, Kan., home.

Commercial real estate investment firm, KBS, recently announced the new tenants to include: national day spa MassageLuXe; Plate, a modern Italian restaurant; Bamboo Penny’s, a Thai restaurant and rooftop lounge; Ice Cream Bae, a creative ice cream shop; an all-new island-themed coffee shop and bar concept, Outta the Blue; Moda Domani, a provider of custom-made men’s suits, clothing and accessories; and Moshiri Jewelry, who sells custom-designed jewelry.

Matt Rau of CBRE represented KBS in the seven recent lease transactions, which range in size from 803 SF to 5,972 SF.

“We have seen strong interest from retailers who want to set up shop at Park Place Village, a highly desirable location in the Leawood market that attracts a steady stream of visitors from near and far,” said Rau.

The seven new tenants complement the existing retail offerings at Park Place Village; including popular restaurants 801 Chophouse, BurgerFi and RA Sushi Bar; and fitness options, Orangetheory and The Bar Method, among others.

“We thoughtfully curated retailers that align with what local residents are demanding. This includes innovative concepts that are unique to this market,” said Dan Park, senior vice president and asset manager for KBS.

In addition to Park Place Village’s one-of-a-kind shopping experience, numerous events are held at the property’s outdoor community courtyard – a place Kansas City residents gather for events throughout the year – including the upcoming summer concert series, movies in the square and the all-new Park Place Farmers’ Market, according to a release.

“Park Place Village has become the central gathering spot for residents and visitors of all ages and interests in Kansas City,” said Park.

Completed in 2013, Park Place Village consists of 10 buildings that include a mix of office, retail tenants and nearby residential space. In addition to the retail offerings, amenities for office tenants at the property include a fitness center, bike storage, EV car-charging stations, on-site parking, a rooftop view terrace, an energy-management system, nearby shopping, transportation and entertainment.

The surrounding area features parking garages, the Aloft Hotel, 201 apartments, 30 townhouses and 27 lofts. Future planned phases of development for the area surrounding the property include another hotel and additional multifamily rental housing.

“The new retail tenants accentuate the exceptional office experience at this center, making it even more attractive for companies in the area,” said Park.

Park Place Village is located at 11549 Ash Street in Leawood, part of Kansas City’s South Johnson County submarket.
