That could be said for almost everything in this stretch of Main.

The Chicago-based development group, which includes Silliman Group LLC and Antheus Capital, is now working on a three-phase, $25 million redevelopment project that will add 182 market-rate apartments, 32,500 square feet of retail and office space, and more than 350 parking spaces near Armour Boulevard and Main Street.

A concrete frame is curing at 3435 Main St., ready to accept delivery next month of about 100 modules that will become Kansas City’s first factory-built apartment building.

When stacked to a five-story height, the building will comprise 80 apartments ready to accept tenants in February 2017.

The modules, with exterior panels made of an aluminum composite, currently are under construction in a Champion Home Builders factory in Nebraska. When delivered, they will be stacked atop the concrete pad that now separates the first and second floors.

“We’ve seen these apartments work successfully in Brooklyn and in Denver,” Cassel said, “We’re looking forward to introducing them in Kansas City.”

The building’s sleek gray-and-white exterior will look substantially different from historic structures in the neighborhood on floors two through five. The first floor, though, will have brick masonry walls and a glass storefront.

The building is being outfitted with the infrastructure to allow for a restaurant facing Main Street. The back part of the ground floor will be for resident parking.

The project will have a mix of studios, one- and two-bedroom apartments. Cassel said the units’ square footage generally will be larger than apartments found in rehabbed midtown buildings. Average apartment sizes in the area are 465 square feet for studios, 672 square feet for one bedrooms, and 917 square feet for two bedrooms.
