Claim a premier position at Kansas City’s illustrious Country Club Plaza with this rare opportunity to lease new construction retail space at 604 W 47th Street, Cocina 47. Boasting the first new construction sole restaurant/retail building added to the Plaza in the past 30 years, this incredible offer is a true rarity that can’t be missed.
Cocina 47 is currently under construction, delivering a total of 47,163 square feet of Class A space for occupancy in 2026. The property is designed to the highest degree of luxury and prominently displays tenants at the NW corner of 47th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue, the main east-west thoroughfare of the Plaza. The second and third floors of the property have already been leased, reinforcing the property’s desirability. The remaining availability delivers approximately 7,974 square feet on the ground floor, which can be leased individually or together with a contiguous 4,696-square-foot lower-level space.
The ground-floor suite provides exceptional positioning for restaurants, featuring 16-foot ceilings, a grand staircase with an escalator, and floor-to-ceiling windows that wrap around the corner storefront. Due to the age and historic nature of the rest of the Country Club Plaza, most restaurants are limited to low ceiling heights, limited outdoor seating, and dated restaurant infrastructure. The space is further enhanced by an open-air, year-round patio, allowing luxurious outdoor dining opportunities.
County Club Plaza offers a best-in-class home for both retail and restaurant businesses within a bustling hub that is well known as a beloved local gathering place as well as the top tourist destination in Kansas City. This hub of luxury, style, and community flaunts eye-catching Spanish Revival architecture and stretches 15 city blocks lined with upscale shopping, local boutiques, and many exquisite restaurants. Benefitting from impressive traffic all year, restaurants at the complex produced more than $100 million in total sales volume. Businesses at Cocina 47 will enjoy a large built-in audience of residents and workers, as well as traveling visitors. The property is situated within walking distance of over 2,200 hotel rooms, 4,871 apartment units, 20 condominium buildings, and nearly 3.3 million square feet of Class A office space. The area is also home to the University of Missouri-Kansas City and Rockhurst University, providing an added customer base of over 25,000 students.
The region surrounding Country Club Plaza ensures strong interest for retail tenants, with convenient proximity to a large number of major demand drivers and attractions. Within 2 miles of the property, potential customers flock to the area to visit the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art, the KCAI Gallery, Saint Luke's Hospital of Kansas City, the Mission Hills, Kansas City, and Indian Hills Country Clubs, and beautiful green spaces at Frank A Theis Park and Loose Park. The area is easily accessible to both metro residents and tourists, sitting just minutes from Highways 169 and 71, with connections from Interstate 35. The site will also benefit from elevated connectivity, sitting less than a mile from the KC Streetcar Main Line extension, Plaza Drop-Off Station, opening in 2025.
