The Retreat on the Prairie, a mixed-use residential and commercial development proposed near K-10 and Ridgeview, got the go-ahead from Lenexa city leaders this week… Some councilmembers also said the project would help the city provide a diverse housing stock. “It’s all of the things that we as Lenexa have done,” said outgoing Councilmember Mandy Stuke. “I just kind of want to bring it to the forefront that I think this is really a good use of the space. “I’m pleased to see that we have different types of housing for all, young to old, and I think this is going to fit another type of Lenexan that may not have this type of option, our empty nesters. People’s lifestyles are somewhat changing. I think this will only enhance and bring new Lenexans to come to love our city even more.”
