Park 39

Park 39 is a residential and commercial development in the heart of Midtown Kansas City. An apartment complex has been built inside a renovated Westport High School, and commercial offices are inside a renovated Westport Middle School. Developers wanted coverage that highlighted the uniqueness of the repurposed schools as well as coverage that focused on new and interesting tenants. Our coverage included a major feature in the Kansas City Star as well as multiple television stories on KMBC, Fox4, KCTV and KSHB.

Turning two former Westport schools into apartments and commercial offices gave Park 39 a story rooted in adaptive reuse, and the developers wanted that distinctiveness — along with its incoming tenants — to reach a wide local audience. EAG’s media outreach delivered a major feature in the Kansas City Star alongside television segments on KMBC, Fox4, KCTV and KSHB, keeping the redevelopment in front of prospective residents and businesses across the metro.
