By the end of 2021, the Kansas City Star will move from its downtown building. The McClatchy paper recently sold the building to Ambassador Hospitality, LLC and has entered into a lease-back agreement, while it looks for new, smaller office space.
As part of the transition, printing of The Star will move up Interstate 35 to the Des Moines Register, which is owned by Gannett Co.
“Leaving a huge office space that is way beyond our current needs allows us to realize savings that will sustain other operations as we continue to align expenses with our digital transformation,” said Star President and Editor Mike Fannin.
