200 Central St Kansas City, MO 64108

2100 Central LLC is renovating a historic manufacturing and office building located in the Crossroads Arts District at 2100 Central. The property is a 3.5-story concrete, stone, and brick structure originally built in 1912 for the Meriden Creamery Company, now being restored while installing new mechanical services and systems, a high-speed elevator, and egress stairwells. Improvements also include a redesigned lobby entrance and new first-floor garage/loading area for the lower level, with office space on the lower level and the 1st through 3rd floors, plus a restaurant on the 1st floor.

The building sits on a zero-lotline parcel measuring 50 feet deep by 145 feet long, with floor plates approximately 7,250 square feet. The lower level is described as the largest floor plate, with nearly 17-foot ceilings, prominent concrete columns and beams, and 4-foot-tall windows on both sides.

Exterior work includes tuck pointing and cleaning of the brick façade with stone architectural detailing. The original Central lobby entrance has been redesigned to provide access to the lower level and entry to the 1st floor. Along the 21st Street façade, 1912 historically correct wood and glass garage doors are being used to infill former openings and create sliding wall openings to restaurant patios. An existing loading dock on the north façade is being rebuilt and extended to 115 feet and covered with a transparent steel and glass canopy. A rooftop addition is planned as a clubhouse and garden patio for commercial tenants.
