Charlotte Street Foundation
The Children’s Place is Kansas City’s leading trauma-informed early childhood education program and counseling center. The Children’s Place (TCP) has grown to become Kansas City’s leading resource for children and families remediating trauma. Many TCP students are currently in foster care and referred by child welfare systems. While they have grown in their ability to treat the effects of trauma, they had outgrown their facility in Brookside they called home for almost 30 years and desparately needed additional space.
Benson Method provided full Owner’s Representative services for a $12 million adaptive reuse of a former charter school. The project included a full renovation of the existing building as well as a new expansion link connecting two structures. Advocating for The Children’s Place throughout the renovation and build-out of approximately +/- 45,000 SF of existing space located on Rockhill Road we were able to successfully assist them in the purchase, renovation and move into their new location.
Project Scope for design and construction includes creation of outdoor classrooms, an outdoor play area, new kitchen and cafeteria, secure bus drop-off area and necessary parking. Construction was completed in fall of 2020.
Project Size: 45,000 SF
Project Cost: $12 Million
