OVERLAND PARK, Kan., October 15, 2009 — Westchester, Ill.-based Tri-land Properties, Inc. announced today that it has begun construction on the redevelopment of Cherokee South Plaza in Overland Park, Kan. Tri-Land Executive Vice President of Acquisitions Hugh Robinson made the announcement.

“We are excited that construction has officially begun on this great project,” said Robinson. “Cherokee South has been a community resource for years, and we are looking forward to delivering an improved destination with many upgrades and additional retail offerings.“

Tri-Land’s redevelopment of the 118,000-square-foot center includes the complete demolition of one building, the construction of three new buildings and the addition of many new retail tenants. Current tenants include, Hallmark, H&R Block, Paul Mitchell School, and several local and regional retail and service providers. Jimmy John’s Gourmet Sandwiches has also signed a lease. The improved Cherokee South Plaza will include outdoor patios, tree-lined walkways, sidewalk planters and public spaces for neighborhood use.
