What a night celebrating 929 Residences!

It was great to see so many people come out to celebrate the grand opening of this historic Kansas City building and the next chapter in its story.

From celebrating its history to seeing the space come to life, the night was a reminder of why projects like this mean so much to us.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the evening such a memorable one. We're proud to be part of this building's story and excited for what's ahead.

A full-circle moment at 929 Walnut.

Last week, we officially opened the doors to 929 Residences and celebrated a project that has been ours from every angle: architect, developer and owner.

Originally built in 1922 for the Kansas City Title & Trust Company, this downtown building had spent years largely vacant. We saw an opportunity to preserve what made it worth keeping while giving it a completely new purpose.

Today, 929 is home to 44 residences, The Vault resident amenity space, a rooftop overlooking downtown and Remedy Cafe & Bar at street level. From restoring original details to reimagining how the building could serve downtown today, every part of 929 reflects what we love about adaptive reuse.

Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate with us, and to every partner who helped bring 929 to life.

929 Walnut is almost ready for its next chapter.

We’ve shared a lot of this building’s story along the way, from its early 1900s roots to the work of bringing it back to life. Now, the finishing details are coming together and we’re giving you a first look inside.

Here’s a little sneak peek at how the old and new are coming together.

More of 929 coming soon.

Come take a walk through 929 Walnut.

Built in 1922, 929 began its story as a place rooted in title, trust and Kansas City commerce. More than a century later, the building is stepping into a new chapter as a residential community with its original character still very much part of the story.

From historic architectural details to spaces reimagined for modern living, every part of 929 reflects a balance between what was worth preserving and what could become something new.

A closer look inside 929, where the past is preserved, the future is imagined, and a little trust in the process goes a long way.

There’s something different about celebrating a project you’ve worked on for years with the people who helped make it happen.

This week, we celebrated the grand opening of the Aiden Hotel and the next chapter of Kansas City’s historic 1919 Mutual Building.

Bringing it to life took vision, thoughtful design, creative problem-solving and the right partners at the table. We’re proud to have worked alongside Oak KC LLC and the Meiners family, Neighbor Construction, Level Builders, KCATA and Aiden by Best Western/BWH Hotels to make it possible.

For our team, this is what it's all about, honoring what makes a building worth keeping while finding a viable path for what comes next.

Tuesday night was a celebration of the building, the work and the people behind it and a project we’re incredibly proud to be part of.

Bob Mayer and Tyler Asby are at the Missouri Governor’s Conference on Economic Development today, connecting with leaders and joining conversations around the investment, development and opportunities shaping communities across Missouri.

At Exact, we believe great development starts with strong partnerships, thoughtful planning and a clear understanding of where communities are headed next.

If you’re at the conference, be sure to stop and say hello. We’d love to connect!

A century of history on the outside. A completely new chapter taking shape inside.

Built in 1922 as the Kansas City Title and Trust Building, 929 Walnut has stood at 10th and Walnut for more than 100 years. Today, we are giving it a new purpose through adaptive reuse, transforming the former downtown office building into loft residences and commercial space while preserving the character that makes it worth saving.

And the exterior is only part of the story.

Stay tuned as we take you inside 929 and share more of the spaces, details and design decisions behind the transformation.

For more than a century, this building has been part of downtown Kansas City, and preserving that history has been an important part of this project from the beginning.

Our involvement with 929 goes well beyond the role of architect. As architects, developers and owners, we’ve had the opportunity to approach the building from every side, from determining what could be preserved and adapted to creating a residential experience that works for how people live today.

The transformation is significant, but 929 still feels connected to the building that was here long before us. That balance between preserving what gives a property its character and making it viable for the future is a big part of why we believe in adaptive reuse.

We’re proud of what 929 has become and even more excited to see people experience it for themselves.

There’s a difference between preserving a building and giving it a future.

For us, adaptive reuse has always been about understanding what’s already there, identifying what makes it worth keeping, and finding the right way to move it forward.

Aiden is that philosophy realized.
What was once the historic 1919 Mutual Building has been reimagined as a new hospitality experience in the heart of Kansas City, with the character of the original building still very much part of the story.
Historic character. New purpose. Built for what’s next.
