1200 W 12th St 50 000 pi² 100% Loué Industriel Immeuble Kansas City, MO 64101 3 792 057 $ CAD (75,84 $ CAD/pi²)

The Holsum Studios building at 1200 W. 12th Street stands as a striking example of Kansas City’s industrial legacy and creative resurgence. Originally constructed in 1903 during a period of rapid growth in the West Bottoms, the building once served as home to Holsum Food Products, with historic elements of its past still visible throughout. Today, the property has been reimagined as a vibrant hub for the arts, with nearly 30 creative tenants utilizing its spacious, light-filled interiors as studios and workshops.
Situated in the heart of the West Bottoms rebirth, the property benefits from its proximity to the $500 million mixed-use redevelopment underway just steps away, positioning it squarely within one of Kansas City’s most dynamic growth corridors.
With its blend of historic character, current creative energy, and prime location, the Holsum Studios building represents a rare opportunity to own a cornerstone property in one of the city’s most transformative districts.
For investors, the property offers both stable, diversified income from its established tenant base and compelling long-term upside as redevelopment continues to drive demand and value in the West Bottoms.
The building is well suited for adaptive reuse as hospitality, multi-family or office.
