The Wichita City Council voted 7-0 to approve a memorandum of understanding (MOU) for two acres of new development around Riverfront Stadium. The stadium was finished back in March 2020 and is located near Maple and McLean. The MOU allows EPC Real Estate LLC to go forward with planning and working to finance the development around the ballpark. The development would include a hotel of at least 150 rooms and six floors, an office building, a 200-space parking structure and riverfront improvements. The developer will seek up to $4 million in Kansas SPARK funding (American Rescue Plan Act) for certain public riverfront improvements.
