KANSAS CITY, MO. — California-based developer BR Cos. will build 800 Grand, a $250 million multifamily project at the southwest corner of Eighth Street and Grand Boulevard in downtown Kansas City.
The 25-story high-rise building will consist of 300 apartments and 24,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space. Information on floor plans and the amenity package was not announced.
Hoefer Welker designed 800 Grand, and Clark Construction and JE Dunn are serving as the general contractors for the tower. Tentative groundbreaking and completion dates were not announced, but the development has been in the works for more than a year.
“Kansas City has the right environment and connectivity through smart public investment in public parks and transportation expansions to attract private investment,” said Ryan Sullivan, chief development officer of BR Cos.
BR Cos., which maintains an office in Kansas City, has also partnered with local real estate agency Aristocrat Realty on the development.
Founded in 2011, BR Cos. currently has 200 employees on staff and focuses on several business lines throughout the United States and Mexico, including real estate, construction, finance and energy.
