KANSAS CITY, MO – The Cordish Companies and the Two Light team are excited to announce the opening of the leasing center for Two Light Luxury Apartments, the newest addition to the downtown Kansas City skyline.

The leasing center, located at 1251 Main Street, provides an opportunity to view, touch and feel a fully built-out one-bedroom suite apartment and the ability to take a virtual tour of all apartments and building amenities. Tours are now available weekdays between the hours of 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. or by appointment.  The apartment and building virtual tours are also available on the Two Light website, which launched today.

The $120 million, 296-unit Two Light, will join One Light as the second new construction high-rise apartment building in the last 50 years in downtown Kansas City, continuing a boom in residential growth downtown that shows no signs of slowing.

“We’ve seen more and more people of all ages and demographics want to live, work and play in downtown Kansas City, and buildings like Two Light will only accelerate and deepen that demand and the overall growth of this fantastic downtown,” said Nick Benjamin, Executive Director of the Kansas City Power & Light District and Director of Multifamily Development for the Cordish Companies.

Two Light will feature a suite of amenities that rivals that of any luxury apartment or condo building anywhere in the United States, including an infinity-edge outdoor pool perched above 14th Street, an indoor pool and spa retreat, a demonstration kitchen, indoor-outdoor bar and party room and, like its sister property One Light, a building sommelier, 24-hour lobby attendant and full suite of concierge services.  All apartments will have luxury wood floors, quartz countertops, porcelain and marble bathroom tile and custom-crafted European-style cabinetry and built-in furniture.

“We couldn’t be more proud to be revealing this unique community and lifestyle to Kansas City,” said Marnie Sauls, Director of Residential Management for the Cordish Companies.  “It’s what Kansas City deserves, and we can’t wait to welcome more residents to the Power & Light District community.” 

Located just one block from the KC Streetcar, Two Light is the first of three eventual apartment towers that will frame the southern edge of the Power & Light District. 

The 307-unit One Light Luxury Apartments opened at 50 East 13th Street in November 2015 and reached 100 percent occupancy in less than five months.

TYSONS, VA – LMC, a leader in apartment development and operations, announced the groundbreaking of Lumen at Tysons, a mixed-use apartment community located in the heart of Tysons, a culturally-rich, rapidly-developing city on the edge of the Washington, D.C. metro area.

The community, part of LMC’s emerging presence in the Mid-Atlantic Northeast, will feature 32 tales, 398 apartment homes and more than 11,000 square feet of retail space on the ground floor. Lumen at Tysons was unveiled during a groundbreaking ceremony on the construction site in October. Steve Saville, project lead for architect DCS Design, Sharon Bulova, chairman of the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors, and Michael Caplin, president of Tysons Partnership, shared their thoughts about the positive impact the community will have on the neighborhood.

“Lumen at Tysons will offer a suite of unparalleled amenities on multiple levels throughout the high-rise, making both a visual aesthetic and a right cutting-edge experience for our residents,” said Stuart Cain, LMC’s vice president of development for the Mid-Atlantic Northeast, about the community, which could be open for first go-ins as early as Fall of 2018. “We believe the thoughtful design, combined with the LMC’s hospitality-driven services, will make the community the finest in the surrounding area and one with long-term, sustainable value.”

Lumen at Tysons, built in conjunction with TEGNA Construction, benefits from a prime location in an international shopping district. Super-regional malls Tysons Corner Center and Tysons Galleria offer a variety of local and national retail options, including various high-end outlets. Among them are Apple, Coach, Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Macy’s and Nordstrom.

From its convenient location along the Capital Beltway (Interstate 495), the Tysons area offers expedient access to professional jobs throughout the metro area. Many prominent employers are rooted in Tysons, including MC Dean, TENGA, Ernst and Young, MITRE, Capital One, Booz Allen, CVENT Headquarters, Hilton Worldwide, Freddie Mac, Intelstat and SAIC. The vibrant, transforming area also is home to several local businesses and vast cuisine options, including highly acclaimed Eddie V’s Prime Seafood, Earl’s Kitchen + Bar, The Capital Grille, Barrel & Bushel, Nostros Restaurant and Chima Brazilian Steakhouse to name a few.

Situated at the epicenter of Tysons, adjacent to the Greensboro Metro Station and flanked by Naturel’s Tysons Water Lillies murals, Lumen at Tysons’ 32 tales will rise over the next two years. Once complete, its apex will boast the highest elevation in Fairfax County. LMC will aim to further cultivate the spirited, eclectic atmosphere of the neighborhood with the development of the community.

Apartment interiors will feature high-end appliances and finishes with help from Faulkner Design. Land Design will help with the landscaping for the community and the civil engineer for the development is Vika. The community’s retail outlets are still to be determined.
