Developments
Lenexa City Center will be a “new downtown” that will contain a broad mix of office, retail, residential, entertainment, and public/institutional uses. These uses will be integrated vertically and horizontally in a true live/work environment with a high level of urban design and architectural quality. Likewise both on-street and structured parking will be built to enhance the urban fabric. Lenexa City Center will contain vibrant public spaces that will serve as gathering areas for the entire community near what will ultimately be the geographic and population center of Lenexa.

Current Public Projects in City Center
87th Street Road Improvements – Work is currently underway to reconstruct 87th Street Parkway into a divided roadway, which will eventually have new mixed-use city blocks built between the new east and westbound lanes. This project is projected to be completed by Fall 2011.
Central Green – In the northwest quadrant of City Center, Lenexa is constructing the Central Green, a project to address stormwater and provide new recreation amenities. Central Green will offer open green space, a series of step pools with waterfalls, a wetland and trail connection to Shawnee Mission Park. The final elements of this project will be completed during the Spring of 2011.
