Overview
- T-Mobile says its 119th and Nall campus cannot host both a stadium and its 3,500-plus workforce, and it will explore new locations if the Royals pick Aspiria.
- The carrier says its lease runs through mid-2029 after a request to extend it was denied, and it prefers to remain in the city and state if it relocates.
- The Royals say they are still evaluating multiple sites, including Aspiria, Washington Square Park in Kansas City, Missouri, and a portion of North Kansas City.
- The team’s ownership group acquired the mortgage for the Aspiria property last spring, making the campus a prominent option under review.
- More than 200 residents turned out at a recent forum to raise traffic, infrastructure and transparency concerns, as Overland Park’s mayor called the idea an exciting possibility and emphasized the city’s development review process.
