The building.
Strawberry Hilltop is 68,000 square feet on 0.87 acres at the corner of 5th and Barnett in Kansas City, Kansas. The building dates to 1910 and was built solid - heavy timber, masonry walls, the kind of structure that doesn't get built anymore.
Building features:
- Loading docks and drive-in access
- Multi-level usable space - basement, ground, mezzanine, and second floor
- Ceiling heights that vary by floor, with generous clear-span on the main floor
- Flexible units - take a single bay or combine several - well suited to workshops, studios, and storage
- Power capacity for light-industrial and creative production
- Street parking on Barnett and 5th (no dedicated lot)
The kinds of work this building is good for.
Makers and small manufacturers
Press shops, fabricators, woodworkers, metal shops - operations that need real floor space and don't fit in a co-working office.
Artists and creative studios
Artists, photographers, dancers, and fitness studios - appointment-based creative businesses that need room, good light, and character.
Production and film
Music-video, film, and commercial production; small production shops. Room to build a set, shoot, and store gear.
Growers and specialty
Microgreens, orchids, and other indoor growers; florists and small-batch specialty makers who need controlled space with power and access.
Restoration and light industrial
Classic-car restoration, refurbishment, and small-to-medium production. Wide bays, good light, room to work. Zoned M-1 light industrial.
Storage and staging
Materials staging for contractors, seasonal storage, and inventory for businesses that need more than a locker but less than a full warehouse.
A good fit for the building - and the neighborhood.
Appointment-only businesses, makers, studios, creative production, and quiet light-industrial work. We offer both short- and long-term leases, and we're happy to talk about what fits your timeline.
Retail storefronts, living spaces, mechanic shops, or anything that produces excessive dust or noise. This is a working building in a residential neighborhood - the right tenants keep it that way.
Background checks are part of the application process.
Open bays, working light.
Interior space at Strawberry Hilltop is what it sounds like - open, functional, ready to be configured for whatever work happens inside. Heavy-timber columns, hard concrete floors, single-pane factory windows that let in real daylight.
Most units are flexible: take a single bay or combine several. Tenants who need office space carve it out of their unit; tenants who need shop floor leave it open.
Strawberry Hill, Kansas City, Kansas.
The building sits on the bluff northwest of I-70, on the edge of the Strawberry Hill neighborhood - a hundred-year-old immigrant community with its own museum and a strong sense of itself, and one of Kansas City's genuine hidden gems. Downtown Kansas City is minutes away; I-70 and I-635 are both easy.
5th and Barnett is a corner lot with on-street parking on Barnett and 5th. There's no dedicated lot, so the building is best suited to businesses that aren't parking-intensive. The neighborhood mix is residential, light industrial, and small business - quiet enough to work, busy enough that a working warehouse fits right in.
