Key Facts

14.15Lot (acres)

Description

Rare opportunity to secure ±14.15 contiguous acres (17422 & 17318 E. US 40 Highway) in the heart of Independence’s high-visibility retail corridor. With more than 900 feet of frontage on US-40, the site enjoys high daily traffic immediate adjacency to Bass Pro Shops, Independence Center, Costco, and the I-70/I-470 interchange. Mostly level topography and all public utilities at the street create a cost-efficient canvas for commercial, mixed-use, or redevelopment projects—think destination retail, flex/warehouse, hospitality, or multi-family (all subject to city approval). The location provides quick access to downtown Kansas City (±15 minutes) and the metro’s major distribution routes, while surrounding rooftops and established national brands ensure a built-in customer base. Independence is pro-growth and offers incentive programs for qualifying developments. Assemblage is offered as a single package; will not divide. Buyer to verify acreage, zoning, and utility availability. Seize one of the last sizable tracts on 40 Highway and shape your next signature project here!
