KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City’s Power & Light District will begin its latest residential expansion later this year.

The district tweeted Friday that construction will begin on Three Light Apartments this summer.

In 2018, the Economic Development Corporation of Kansas City’s 353 Board recommendedthe city council not collect property taxes from the tower for 25 years, but added two stipulations: 1) The city review the cost of construction prior to crews breaking ground on the apartment complex, and 2) the city audit Three Light’s success five years after its opening to decide whether to continue offering the property tax break.

One Light Apartments opened in 2015, with Two Light Apartments following in 2018.
