OVERLAND PARK, KAN. — Westchester, Ill.-based Tri-land Properties will begin construction in July for the redevelopment of Cherokee South Plaza, a retail center located in Overland Park. Construction for the 188,000-square-foot project will include the demolition of the former Cherokee South Sun Fresh and the construction of three new buildings. A 15,000-square-foot, freestanding Walgreens pharmacy is already under construction and will serve as the anchor for the retail center when it opens in October. Other improvements at Cherokee South Plaza will include outdoor patios, tree-lined walkways, sidewalk planters and public spaces. Completion of the project is slated for December.
