In the center of Leawood lies a place that was built for you. With the charm of mainstreet, Park Place offers the best in local, regional, and national venues. One-of-a-kind boutiques line the streets and owners take pride in knowing each customer. Restaurants cater to your every desire – from gourmet sandwiches to delectable dishes designed by celebrity chefs. Specialty food and desserts appear as a work of art. Part-time hobbyists become full-time enthusiasts. And that’s just the beginning… fresh flowers and saltwater fish, a hip hotel and an escape room adventure, the perfect pillow and the prettiest pedicure – Park Place has it all.
Park Place offers retail, dining, office, lodging, and residential options set in a charming communal setting. In the middle of it all sits the beautiful Barkley Square, a community green space featuring year-round activities. In the Summer, enjoy live concerts and movies while sipping a refreshing drink at one of the surrounding restaurant patios or rooftop decks. In the Winter, the area magically transforms to “The Ice,” Leawood’s only outdoor ice-skating rink. Throughout the year, various events and activities add to the vibrant community, such as an annual street fair, an outdoors market, a family-friendly summer concert series, and more.
Come relax and enjoy. Meet some friends, bring the family, or have some calming time to yourself. It’s your time, your taste, your style. Park Place, it’s your place.
