Let your imagination and profits run wild!  

Located less than 2 blocks from the historic town square at 208 W Pearl St, Harrisonville, MO 64701, this ~10,000 sq ft former jail on a ~1/2 acre corner lot is ready for you to build out and operate the jail-themed entertainment, filming, retail, and lodging complex of your dreams.  You can serve and entertain the 2.2 million Kansas City metro area residents and 24.5 million annual visitors who yearn for more entertainment, retail, and lodging options.  

Leverage the nationally published legend of Del Dunmire, a bank robber turned businessman and philanthropist who earned over $100 million, bought 80% of the properties surrounding the town square, invited all of Kansas City and Evel Knievel to his wedding, and flew his former high school classmates to the Bahamas for an all-expenses paid reunion.

Formerly the Cass County Jail, this solid brick and concrete building was built to last!  The high security area contains 32 cells with toilets and sinks in 4 cell blocks that each have a shower, with secure viewing areas.  The remaining ~5,000 sq ft of office space is also very secure from the exterior.  It also has a secure fenced area on the north side of the building.

There is space for parking on the west, east, and north sides of the building.  Asbestos has been abated.

Harrisonville is easily accessible via I-49, bus, many nearby regional airports, and the Kansas City International Airport which is an hour away.  Harrisonville is home to suburbia dwellers and a passthrough destination for lake and recreational enthusiasts, and entertainment seekers.
