Last week, a six-year-long process took a big tangible step. The groundbreaking for the first phase of Paragon Star's 130-acre site took place at Interstate 470 and View High Drive in Lee's Summit.
“It’s fun having these trucks on the property and knowing that we’re going to be taking down trees. We are excited to see the work finally getting done,” developer Flip Short stated. “It is beyond satisfying to know the group got together six years ago and it actually the kickoff day to get things done. It is kind of surreal.”
Short wanted to make sure everyone knew, when people drive by on 470 they may not see a lot of activity for awhile.
