UMB Bank issued a $116 million construction loan in 2023, Yardi Research Data shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The warehouse marks the first building to come online within Hunt Midwest\u2019s KCI 29 Logistics Park, a 3,300-acre campus with the potential to hold more than 20 million square feet of industrial product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Located on approximately 103 acres at 13231 NW Roanridge Road, the property is about 25 miles northwest of downtown Kansas City, Mo. The distribution center has access to Interstate 29, which runs less than 1 mile away, while the Kansas City International Airport operates within roughly 5 miles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ ALSO<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/construction-industry-faces-uncertainty-challenges\/\">How Construction Headwinds Are Shaping Development<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>The facility serves as a retail support center for Ace Hardware, supporting its network of independent stores across the country. Its size is almost twice as large as the average distribution center operated by the company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Benefitting from a 20-year tax abatement, the property features a clear height of 40 feet, as well as four grade-level and 286 dock doors. Additionally, Ace will implement automation technology and efficiency systems designed to streamline operations and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/skanska-evp-on-sustainability-trends-in-construction\/\">reduce environmental impact<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the company&#8217;s inception six decades ago, Hunt Midwest has developed more than $3 billion worth of projects across several sectors, including industrial, self storage, senior housing and multifamily.
