Thrasher to build new HQ at Southlake Office Park

Construction has begun on a new KC office headquarters for Thrasher Foundation Repair, a midwest foundation repair company, at Southlake Office Park in Lenexa, Kan.

The five-acre site, acquired from developer City+Ventures, is located near I-35 and Renner Blvd. and will serve as Thrasher’s new, 25,000-SF Kansas City headquarters, providing both office and warehouse space.

“Southlake Office Park continues to see significant momentum and interest from a variety of users,” said Chris Erickson, co-founder of City+Ventures.

“The demand for quality space in a prime location such as this is driving market activity for the region. We enthusiastically welcome Thrasher and are excited for the future of Southlake.”

JLL, who represents City+Ventures at Southlake, plans for investing in new building amenities, providing Class-A common areas and tenant finishes and developing the interior land sites with complimentary uses for the existing office tenants.

Southlake has additional land available for purchase, ranging from three to 15 acres or for build-to-suit opportunities. This is the second tract sold at the Southlake Office Park this year, following JLL’s completed sale of a 3.6-acre site for a new VA clinic in January 2020.

Southlake offers a variety of options for businesses with both Class A and B office offerings, flex space for companies requiring warehouse or loading capabilities, and 45 acres for development. The park has an on-site daycare center, on-site management office, the Lenexa Conference Center and the Lenexa Chamber of Commerce, and is strategically located in the center of Johnson County with easy access to I-35, I-435 and K-10 Highways.

Current amenities include three miles of walking trails, 10 well-stocked ponds, redundant high-speed fiber and dual power feeds. New amenities and upgrades to the properties have commenced construction this year, including Class-A common areas and tenant finishes, new monument signage for the entire park, new exterior painting of the Tech Center buildings, updated landscaping and the development of interior land sites with complimentary uses for the existing office tenants.

The design/construction team for Thrasher Foundation Repair project is comprised of Ryan Companies, TACK Architecture and Sidekick Development.

Established in 1975, Thrasher Foundation Repair is a part of Thrasher Group and does basement waterproofing, foundation repair, and concrete repair based out of Omaha, Neb., with regional locations in Wichita, Kansas City, Des Moines, Sioux City and Grand Island.
