About Current Landing

NOT ANOTHER DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

Kansas City is reclaiming its riverfront with intention and imagination. On land long overlooked, a new district reconnects the city to the Missouri River through thoughtful design, year-round gathering places, and a mix of uses rooted in real life and real people.

The opening of CPKC Stadium—the world’s first purpose-built home for a professional women’s soccer team—marked a turning point for the waterfront. Now anchoring Current Landing, the stadium set a larger vision in motion, where daily life, sport, culture, and community unfold side-by-side along the water’s edge.

LIVE BY THE RIVER

Phase one, opening spring 2026, brings the first wave of waterfront residences — River’s Edge and Confluence — set to welcome residents before the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Alongside them, a lively Town Square and more than a dozen scheduled restaurants and bars will shape new habits, new routines, and new memories for those who live, work, and visit here.

VISION MEETS REALITY

Built by Palmer Square Real Estate Management and co-developed by Marquee Development alongside the Kansas City Current, Current Landing blends the city’s roots with a future that feels both inevitable and surprising. It’s a neighborhood that honors what Kansas City has been while inviting the city into what it can become.

A LOCAL COMMITMENT

Led by Chris and Angie Long, Current Landing reflects a long-term dedication to Kansas City, grounded in equity, investment, and civic pride. From its earliest decisions to its everyday details, the district is shaped by intention—creating a riverfront neighborhood designed to serve the city now and for generations to come.

MORE TO COME

This launch is just the beginning. Over time, Current Landing will grow to include hundreds more high-end homes, expansive office and retail space, luxury hospitality, an indoor concert venue, and even more places to meet, mix, and make something out of every day.

The Vision for Current Landing

The vision for Current Landing is rooted in creating a seamless relationship between architecture, public space, and the Missouri River—establishing an iconic urban riverfront experience that feels both timeless and distinctly Kansas City. Framed views, layered streetscapes, and the new Founder’s Park overlook and pathways draw residents and visitors toward the water, reestablishing the city’s historic bond with the river and making it an active part of daily life once again.

At its core, the district is shaped by three defining moves:

New Town Square

The creation of a central gathering area fronting the stadium, conceived as the neighborhood’s town square.

Grand Riverfront Promenade

Current Landing features a grand riverfront promenade that reconnects the city to the water’s edge.

Transformation of Riverfront Drive

Finally, the transformation of the existing Riverfront Drive into a straighter, more legible central spine linking the new streetcar station to the stadium plaza.

Transformation of Riverfront Drive

It’s a brand new place for Kansas City to gather & cheer

Development extends to the edge of the newly upgraded Heritage Riverfront Trail, activating the promenade with ground-level retail, dining, and neighborhood-serving uses that bring energy to the riverfront throughout the day. Renamed KC Current Way, the curbless, pedestrian-first street celebrates arrival—transforming into a classic ceremonial “march to the match” on game days while functioning as a welcoming public realm the rest of the week. The town square is designed not only as a pre- and post-match gathering space, but as a vibrant civic space for everyday life, hosting community events, casual meetups, and spontaneous moments that define great urban places.

The architectural expression across Current Landing is intentionally timeless, drawing inspiration from the classical base, middle, and top design language found in enduring European cities and villages. Carefully articulated façades integrate expressive parapets, refined cornice lines, and intentional reveals, while massing is shaped to celebrate special views and key public moments. Along the town square, Current Landing’s Phase I buildings (River’s Edge Residences and Confluence Residences) step down to preserve views toward downtown, with upper stories accented by terracotta-clad mansard roofs and arched colonnades that frame active retail at street level. Along the river, River’s Edge features a distinctive single-story solarium anchoring the corner, while breaks in the townhome expression create visual connections and framed outlooks from the building’s amenity courtyards to the water beyond.

Together, the architecture balances elegance with approachability—offering a European sensibility that feels authentic, crafted, and enduring, while remaining unmistakably original and deeply rooted in the character and future of Kansas City.
