Description
This church facility presents a compelling redevelopment opportunity in the heart of Kansas City’s urban core. Situated on 1.04± acres, the building offers substantial scale and flexibility for conversion to multifamily housing, community services, or institutional reuse. Previously explored as residential concept with initial City support, the property aligns with ongoing neighborhood reinvestment efforts.
Situated on a corner parcel just east of Prospect Avenue, this site sits between Montgall and Chestnut Avenues, in the residential Oak Park neighborhood of Kansas City’s 3rd District. The site benefits from direct access to the Prospect MAX bus rapid transit line and is less than five minutes from key retail and service hubs, including Gates East Plaza, Emanuel Cleaver II Blvd, and The Paseo.
Proximity to U.S. 71 provides quick connectivity to I-70, Downtown Kansas City, and institutions such as the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art. Surrounded by civic, residential, and light commercial uses, this is a prime location for community-focused redevelopment within an active reinvestment corridor.
