Plans for the next phases of a massive development near 135th Street and State Line Road in Leawood are moving through City Hall, including hundreds of apartments, brownstone rowhouses, restaurants, a park and amphitheater.

Called East Village of Leawood, the development on 116 vacant acres has stirred up controversy over the past few years, with neighbors and homeowner associations concerned about aesthetics, traffic and density. After making several compromises, the developer last year won rezoning and preliminary approval from a split, 5-4 City Council vote.

Lenexa-based Oddo Development is building the $300 million project in six phases, with more than 600 luxury apartments, million-dollar homes, duplexes, an assisted living facility, a grocery store, retail, restaurants, offices and green space. 

This past March, the council granted final approval to the first two phases of construction, which will feature 26 single-family homes, 12 luxury duplexes and 26 apartment buildings.

Now, the developer is seeking final approval for the third and fourth phases, with more housing and a park, at the northeast corner of 135th Street and Pawnee Lane.
