Marketing description
Northmarq National Restaurant Group is pleased to offer the opportunity to acquire a vacant former Burger King located at 4001 Blue Ridge Cutoff in Kansas City, Missouri. Built in 2017, the 3,115-square-foot retail/restaurant building sits on a 1.976-acre corner lot with an existing drive-thru, approximately 55 parking spaces, and B3-2 Community Business zoning. The property is offered fee simple with no encumbrances and provides a flexible footprint suited for a wide range of QSR users.
The site benefits from direct interstate access and strong visibility at the corner of Blue Ridge Cutoff and Interstate 70, with traffic counts of 17,919 AADT on Blue Ridge Cutoff and 112,486 AADT on I-70. The property is also visible from the interstate with available signage at the I-70 off-ramp.
Positioned at the entrance to both GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium and Kauffman Stadium, the property is located within a premier sports and entertainment corridor that draws millions of visitors annually through Chiefs and Royals games, concerts, and major events including the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Nearby Swope Park adds additional regional draw with 1,800 acres of recreation and approximately 2 million annual visitors.
The surrounding area is further supported by a major development pipeline, including the future redevelopment of the 400-acre stadium site after the Chiefs and Royals relocate in 2031, the 200-acre Blue River Commerce Center, and the ongoing I-70 reconstruction project. The Kansas City MSA has a population of approximately 2.2 million, with Jackson County home to more than 700,000 residents and a broad employment base spanning healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, and other sectors.
Investment highlights
FLEXIBLE DRIVE-THRU QSR ON A TWO-ACRE LOT
Built in 2017, this 3,115 SF building sits on a two-acre corner lot with direct interstate access and an existing drive-thru, offering a flexible footprint that works for a wide range of QSR tenants.
STRONG TRAFFIC COUNTS & INTERSTATE VISIBILITY
The property sits at the corner of Blue Ridge Cutoff and I-70. Blue Ridge Cutoff sees traffic counts of 17,919 AADT and I-70 sees 112,486, both running directly in front of the site. The property is visible from the interstate with available signage at the I-70 off-ramp.
PREMIER SPORTS & ENTERTAINMENT DESTINATION
The subject property sits at the entrance to both Arrowhead and Kauffman stadiums, the current homes to the Kansas City Chiefs and the Kansas City Royals for the next five years. The stadiums combine for millions of visitors each year, driven by Chiefs and Royals home games, concerts, and marquee events like the 2026 FIFA World Cup. A short drive away sits Swope Park, which is 1,800 acres of recreation that hosts 2 million visitors annually. As one of the largest municipal parks in the United States, the park anchors regional recreation attractions like the Kansas City Zoo and the Starlight Theatre Amphitheater, adding to a recreational hub that features multiple golf courses, lake access, and over 20 miles of mountain bike trails that complement the trailhead near Blue Ridge Boulevard.
MAJOR DEVELOPMENT PIPELINE
The defining development story sits next to the subject property: the 400-acre site currently home to the Chiefs and Royals stadiums is slated for a full redevelopment once both teams relocate to their new venues in 2031. A master plan is targeted by end of 2026, and local government has guaranteed the site will not be allowed to sit idle. Outside of the stadium site, long-term development in the area includes the 200-acre Blue River Commerce Center — a 2.6 million square foot industrial park expected to create more than 1,500 jobs — and the ongoing I-70 reconstruction, which will replace 12 interchanges and 26 bridges across a 5-mile stretch of I-70.
BROAD EMPLOYER BASE
The Kansas City MSA carries a population of roughly 2.2 million, with the subject property sitting in Jackson County, the second most populated county in Missouri and home to over 700,000 residents. The area draws from a diverse employer base with Hallmark Cards, H&R Block, Lockton Companies, Unilever, Ford, Honeywell, and multiple healthcare facilities like Oracle Health, Saint Luke’s Hospital of Kansas City, Children's Mercy Hospital, and Centerpoint Medical Center anchoring the economy with no single sector making up more than 15% of the overall employment. This employment base provides stable, recession-resistant employment across health care, financial services, and manufacturing.
