Closing is coming soon for part of a travel plaza in the works for far west Emporia.
Brownstone 3 Development Vice President of Operations Darrin Dodge tells KVOE News the travel plaza portion of the development should close by mid-January. Kwik Stop will be the travel plaza name, with the plaza operating under the Pilot flag.
The development will include the travel plaza and a shopping development. The strip center aspect is 80 percent full, according to Dodge. Tenants should be announced “shortly” with construction to begin after Jan. 1. Dodge says negotiations continue with a hotel operator.
The better-than-30-acre development is just west of the US Highway 50 and Graphic Arts intersection, immediately south of the US-50 roundabout. Underground utility work was completed almost a year ago.
