Edison District Approved by the City

Last week the Overland Park City Council approved The Edison District development in Downtown Overland Park, giving the green light for construction to begin.

Edison District’s five stories will include a chef-driven food hall, outdoor event plaza and 126,000 SF of space available for office & retail tenants.  AREA Real Estate Advisors is representing Edison District in the search for occupants.

Today’s best and brightest are choosing where they work based on where they live. Optimally, they want a location where they can leave their car at home and use that extra time to be more productive. What was only available in downtown Kansas City is now a reality in the heart of Downtown Overland Park with Edison District.

With over 1,000 new residents living within four blocks of the Edison District, a company’s future address can be strategically located to retain and recruit employees in a location that can’t be duplicated.

“We are currently seeking anchor tenants for this one of a kind opportunity in the heart of downtown Overland Park,” says Tim Schaffer, AREA president. “We are beginning to field requests from the professional community about the amenities associated with the project and are confident it will fill quickly and successfully.” Employees working at Edison District will have everything they need, both personal and work-related, including a wide selection of affordable housing options, in their neighborhood and within walking distance.

This District’s future environment is sought out by today’s top talent and is a brilliant way for employers to compete to recruit and retain the area’s top talent.
