May 10, 2024Development,

As one of Kansas’ leading mixed-use developments, Bluhawk will be anchored by a multisport complex and best-in-class retailers and restaurants.

Overland Park, Kan., March 6, 2024 – JLL announced today it will lead the retail leasing and marketing for Bluhawk, a 300-acre mixed-use development in Overland Park, Kansas, located at 7951 W. 160 Street. Bluhawk is being developed by PB Development (a Price Brothers affiliate).

The 300-acre Bluhawk development broke ground over ten years ago and has emerged as one of the
leading mixed-use developments in the state, anchored by a 420,000 square-foot multi-sport complex, a
270,000 square foot fully leased neighborhood center, residential and office uses as well as AdventHealth South Overland Park, providing healthcare to communities in southeastern Johnson County. Bluhawk is now entering its next phase of development, utilizing JLL’s services to lease nearly 200,000 square feet of new retail and restaurant space, which will be ready for occupancy in Spring 2026.

The JLL team working with PB Development includes Kristin Grove, Senior Vice President of Retail Agency Leasing, Holly Rome, Executive Vice President of Retail Agency Leasing, Ashlyn Booth, Executive Vice President of Strategy and Marketing and Rebecca Sidles, Regional Marketing Manager.

“We are honored to be a part of this special project in Overland Park for Price Brothers,” said Rome.
“Bluhawk will be a special gathering place for families, and we will be seeking those special retailers and
restaurants for this next phase of development that make a project like this unique and destination worthy.”

The AdventHealth Sports Park at Bluhawk, a $125 million, 420,000 square-foot multi-sport complex, will open its first 260,000 square-feet this September. Once completed, the project is expected to attract 3.8 million visitors annually. The neighborhood center is anchored by Cosentino’s, a specialty high-end grocer, along with other retailers, including TJMaxx and Bath & Body Works, now open, as well as Ulta Beauty, Sierra and Rack Room Shoes, which will open this spring.

Bluhawk is located in the wealthiest county in the state, with an average household income of $175,000
within a three-mile radius of the project. Bluhawk is conveniently located adjacent to the bustling U.S.
Highway 69.

“When complete, Bluhawk will serve as a highly desired destination and economic generator that will drive significant impact and opportunity for the city and state,” said Kent Price, President of Price Brothers and owner of Bluhawk. “This project will be a prime example of how mixed-use public and private partnerships can create a net benefit for surrounding residents, businesses, communities and the greater state. This next development phase will materialize our vision of a legacy asset with the leasing of best-in-class retailers and restaurants.”
