The Opus Group® Begins Construction on Industrial Development in Liberty, Missouri

10/27/2020
The Opus Group (Opus) announced today the start of construction on Heartland Meadows Commerce Center, a 182,000-square-foot speculative industrial development in Liberty, Missouri. Located within Heartland Meadows Industrial Park, this is a prime location for tenants looking to be near major highways/interstates and minutes from the Kansas City International Airport.

“This is the first speculative, new construction project to take place in the park within the past decade, so we are eager to contribute to the area’s industrial growth with this modern development,” said Yianni Vrentas, real estate representative at Opus. “Our integrated team has worked diligently with our partners, local stakeholders and the City of Liberty to swiftly plan and develop this project in a well-established industrial park and in an area that boasts a strong labor pool.”

The speculative development will be able to accommodate up to eight tenants, providing four double entrances, 220 parking stalls, 32-foot clear height, up to 43 dock positions, two drive-in doors, and trailer parking.  Located at 2810 West Heartland Drive (northwest corner of Shepard Road and West Heartland Drive), this accessible and prominent location offers nearby access to Interstate 35 and U.S. Highway 69.

To deliver curb appeal and individuality for tenant businesses, each double entrance emphasizes a wide architectural design element that consists of contrasting colors and projecting canopies. The projecting canopies are designed with high-quality composite panels and illuminated soffits with available overhead wall area to accommodate tenant signage. The warehouse space features clerestory windows for exceptional natural daylight and uses energy-efficient LED lighting.

The building is slated for completion in August 2021.

Opus is the developer, design-builder, and architect and engineer of record. For leasing information, contact Patrick McGannon and Matthew Severns at Kessinger Hunter.
