Kadean to Build Two Additional Warehouse-Distribution Facilities at KCI Intermodal BusinessCentre

Kadean Construction will begin construction this month on two large Class-A warehouse and distribution facilities worth nearly $28 million at the KCI Intermodal Business Centre for developer Trammell Crow Company.  The 216,320 square foot LogisticsCentre VII and 459,680 square foot LogisticsCentre VIII will be the sixth and seventh such facilities Kadean has built in the 687-acre logistics park adjacent to Kansas City International Airport for Trammell Crow Company.

Trammell Crow Company and Clarion Partners received the 2020 Business Excellence Award on April 2 from the Platte County Economic Development Council in recognition of its efforts to build and promote the KCI Intermodal Business Centre.

LogisticsCentre VII will be an office / warehouse / distribution center incorporating sustainable design and construction features. The facility will feature a structural steel frame, concrete tilt-up walls, seven-inch thick reinforced concrete floor, 32-foot clear height ceiling, 48 dock positions and parking stalls for 62 trailers and 225 cars.  Other features will include four storefront entrances for up to four potential tenants and two drive-up ramp dock doors for vehicle access into the building.

LogisticsCentre VIII will be a multi-tenant, cross-dock warehouse / distribution center that incorporates sustainable design and construction features. This building will feature a structural steel frame, concrete tilt-up walls, seven-inch thick reinforced concrete floor, a 36-foot clear height ceiling, 88 dock doors and parking for 110 trailers and 366 cars.  Other features will include three storefront entrances for up to three potential tenants and four drive-up ramp dock doors for vehicle access into the building.

Both buildings will be built to achieve LEED Certification and are scheduled to be completed in November 2021.  M + H Architects is the project architect and Stock & Associates is the civil engineer for both buildings.  Marketing and leasing services are provided by CBRE.

“KCI Intermodal Business Centre is key to the Kansas City area’s growing logistics market, and we are pleased to continue partnering with Trammell Crow Company and Clarion Partners to fulfill its vision here through the construction of these projects,” said Josh Moore, Project Director at Kadean Construction.  “We are building bigger projects now than at any time in our 58-year history, and our growth has been built through our comprehensive design-build services and a high level of client teamwork and collaboration on projects including those at KCI Intermodal Business Centre.”

Kadean previously built LogisticsCentre II, III, IV and V and is currently in the process of completing LogisticsCentre VI.
