The Visionary Place
Shaping Tomorrow’s City, Today. Downtown Wichita is a thriving hub of social, professional and cultural experiences with 350 residential units under development, over 120 unique retailers and 4.1 million square feet of occupied office space. At the core of the largest city in Kansas, it’s an employment epicenter. Continuing to support infrastructure and development according to the tenets of Project Downtown: The Master Plan for Wichita, Wichita is rapidly growing into the vibrant, 20-year vision for its downtown.
