A new high end apartment complex called Mission 106 is currently under construction in Kansas City, with an ultimate plan of 132 apartments and seven townhomes located at the complex’s site at 106th Street and Mission Road in Leawood. The Leawood apartment complex is within a mixed use project called Mission Farms. The 206,000 square-feet of buildings — including the four-story tall apartment buildings, the town homes, 6,000 square feet of speculative office space, a 16,000 square-foot podium deck and a 206 stall, four-story parking garage should be completed by in the summer of 2015, according to the developers.
Mission 106 was designed by Prairie Village firm NSPJ Architects. The goal of the Mission Hills complex is to provide a place where people can live, play, and work all within walking distance. The luxury apartment market in Kansas City is a significant one, and the area Class A occupancy above 95 percent, the luxury apartment market generated a flurry of local projects last year. According to a recent report from CBRE Group Inc.’s Kansas City office, those projects have filled the apartment construction pipeline with 6,926 units to be delivered by 2015.
