A lot may still be hard to picture about a new entertainment district coming in near downtown Kansas City — including a 150-foot Ferris wheel next to Interstate 35 — but more details for the project, dubbed Pennway Point, are starting to come together.

Local chef and restaurant owner Justin Easterwood, for one, has a clear vision of what his customers will experience at Chef J BBQ (chefjbbqkc), which is slated to open in the district in 2024.

“You get a good beer, go get a tray of barbecue, walk right outside past the smokers, sit down right out there and enjoy it while we’re tending fire,” he said.

The barbecue joint and a new Boulevard Brewery (boulevard_beer) taproom will soon be some of the first tenants opening up shop at Pennway Point, the “family-friendly entertainment and experiential district” set to span 6 acres in the Westside near the intersection of West Pershing Road and West Pennway Street.

This week, the company handling development for some of the space at Pennway Point, announced an initial list of tenants at two buildings on the site.
