THE MONTHLY NEWSLETTER OF PINE RIDGE BUSINESS PARK |
|
|
The Pine Ridge Business Park portfolio is happy to welcome Junior Property Manager, Jennifer Coleman to the team!
After 13 years in the retail industry and looking for a new career path, a chance phone call brought me into the commercial real estate industry. I began my career with a small corporate firm, Miller Real Estate Investments in Colorado. I quickly learned to navigate property management as an Administrative Assistant and never looked back. After becoming a first-time Mom to my daughter Scarlett, in July 2021, I knew we needed to be closer to family, so we moved to Missouri. As a Colorado native, I’ve always enjoyed the outdoors and I look forward to exploring the Kansas/Missouri area. I’m always open to suggestions for new adventures. I’m excited to start my new life and career with Block Real Estate Services.
Again, Please Welcome Jennifer!

Hello! I’m Alison Leigh, owner of AlisonLeighDesigns. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in business. I spent 20 years working in marketing while raising four children. I’ve had a longtime love of styling spaces for friends and family. When my husband and I became empty nesters, I decided to officially turn my passion for home staging and styling into a career. And thus, AlisonLeighDesigns was born.
I work with both home staging and styling clients. Statistics show staged homes sell faster, and often for top dollar. Staging is a powerful marketing tool in selling houses. Home staging was previously reserved for high end real estate,
however now staging is done at any selling point. I have staged properties from $200K-$1M. My services range from consultations to complete (vacant ) staging of homes in the Kansas City metro and surrounding areas. I assist with decluttering, downsizing and updating interior finishes of a house to get it market ready. I own a wide assortment of inventory to furnish a vacant property or add to the current aesthetic of a home.
|
|
I come from a family of custom home builders, so I grew up around home design. My husband and I have personally built five custom homes. I enjoy the excitement of selecting interior finishes to create a warm, cohesive, functional home. I truly enjoy staging homes that will captivate a prospective buyer's attention and help them visualize how a house will work for their lifestyle.
I also offer styling services to my clients as a way to fall in love with their existing homes all over again, through fresh pieces and small updates. My current styling projects include a master bedroom/ bath renovation, selections for a pool house, and furnishing an AirBnB.
I’d love to help with your current home design needs! Get in touch through my ‘contact’ page or email me at AlisonLeighDesign@gmail.com

Wayside horns sounding in Old Town |
|
There's a new, quieter sound alerting Old Town Lenexa to passing trains. Installation and testing of the new wayside horns at the Pflumm and Noland Road railroad crossings is now complete.
The City of Lenexa has been working with BNSF Railway to install wayside horns at two crossings in Old Town since 2018. Wayside horns are stationary horns which emit a targeted train sound that alerts drivers to oncoming trains. They’re an effective way to reduce noise pollution from trains, which has long been a priority for the residents and businesses who live near the crossings.
Construction on the new horns wrapped up in mid-July 2021. The City then began working to coordinate testing of the new horns with the railroad and resolve issues identified during this process.
Early in November, the railroad indicated that the preparation work was completed and that the City could issue the Notice of Establishment (NOE) to finalize the connection of the horn system with the railroad crossing control system. Lenexa staff issued the NOE setting Dec. 1, 2021, as the date that the trains should stop sounding their horns and the wayside horns would be turned on permanently.
Railroad staff confirmed that the horns were fully activated and that notice was sent to the engineers to stop sounding their train horns on Dec. 1. However, you could still hear train horns sound occasionally – trains can sound their horns at crossings with wayside horns if there is a safety concern, such as workers in the area.

Farmers Market vendors honored with ag awards |
|
Two Lenexa Farmers Market vendors were recognized with state-level agriculture awards in 2021. We are proud of Jacob Thomas from JET Produce and Meats for being named one of this year’s Kansas Ag Heroes. On the Missouri side, Daniel Hipsher from Midwest Specialty Foods (Daniel’s Bar-b-q Sauces at our Market) received the EmpowerMore Award given at the Best of Missouri Grown reception. These business owners have developed innovative approaches to support local food producers.
Jacob Thomas from JET Produce and Meats, is a third-generation farmer in Leavenworth County, Kansas. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit in 2020, he stepped forward to make sure the community had access to wholesome, local food. At the Lenexa Farmers Market, he offered other vendors’ products when they were not able to have a presence there due to health concerns related to COVID. Jacob provided access and availability both to those in need and those with resources. His commitment to offering quality local foods continues at every market.
Daniel Hipsher from Daniel’s Bar-b-q Sauces in Lee’s Summit, Missouri, has been an entrepreneur his whole life. He is always excited to share in the enthusiasm of another person’s idea. His award-winning barbecue sauces have been a hit at the Lenexa Farmers Market. Daniel realized he could also help other food entrepreneurs bring their locally made products to market through his newest business venture: Midwest Specialty Foods. From getting the product produced, labeled, on shelves and sold at the Lenexa Farmers Market, Daniel helps other entrepreneurs make their dreams come true.
Congratulations to Jacob and Daniel!

NEW SINGLE TERMINAL AT KCI LANDS IN MARCH 2023
Work continues toward the on-time completion of the new single terminal at KCI Airport, slated to welcome its first travelers in March 2023 in time for the 2023 NFL Draft in Kansas City. Construction on the project—designed to revolutionize Kansas City’s airport experience upon opening—reached its halfway point in March 2021.
The new, 39-gate terminal at KCI represents a total transformation of the passenger experience for Kansas City’s air travelers. Features such as dedicated arrival and departure levels, covered parking in an adjacent garage, moving walkways and consolidated security checkpoints will offer a modern environment with easy navigation. Upon arriving at the terminal, travelers will be greeted by a vast selection of area restaurants and retail options, with more than 80 percent of businesses representing local brands, plus many more new amenities designed for comfort and convenience.
Public art will have a significant presence in the new terminal, with a total of $5.6 million being invested in works from 28 individual artists. The final 19 artists, all of whom live in the KC area or have local ties, were announced in September 2021. Sculptures, paintings and installations will reflect area history and Kansas City’s cultural cornerstones, from its well-recognized place as a jazz hotbed to its City of Fountains moniker.
