Pioneer Crossing, a proposed $2.3 billion development in Clay County, Missouri, aims to revitalize a 472-acre plot owned by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The project plans to create over 1,000 residential units and 1 million square feet of retail space near the intersection of Interstate 435 and Highway 152. Kansas City 1st District Councilman Kevin O’Neill envisions the area as a vibrant shopping and entertainment hub, similar to popular locations like the Country Club Plaza. The development is expected to generate approximately 28,000 construction jobs and more than 9,000 permanent positions once completed. However, infrastructure upgrades, including roads and utilities, are needed before construction can commence. The project reflects a growing interest from retailers in the Northland area, which has historically been underserved in retail options, according to Tyler Buswell, president of Land Reserve Inc., the developer behind the project.
