"The city of Lenexa, Kansas selected the
Haile Group to design and develop a new city center for this expanding suburb outside of Kansas City. This project belongs
to a growing trend in America to build dense town centers according to the principles of New Urbanism."

The project for Lenexa City Center proposes a mixed
use development (residential, commercial and office spaces) to be built, according to New Urbanist principles on
62 acres (40 units/acre). The development encompasses a complex articulation of private and public spaces organized
in a comfortable and elegant way and including a town square and an identifiable town center. About 1000 residential units
are housed in familiar and harmonious residential typologies offering both an agreable variety and a remarkable
urban character.
Developer: Haile Group, Robert Kramer and Jeff Fleeman
Principal Designers: Robert Kramer and Michael B. Morrissey

"Located at the outer ring of suburban
growth, this dense, mixed use, and urban "fragment" will act as a unified center with the capability to influence the
pattern of growth around it. Like a Mandala diagram with a strong center and generative capabilities, we believe that this
project will stabilize sprawling growth and set the direction for future development in the region."
