Another addition to the dining scene is El Toro Loco, an authentic Mexican restaurant that will occupy the former On the Border space at Summit Woods Crossing Shopping Center. With a menu featuring street tacos, enchiladas, and fajitas, El Toro Loco aims to bring a taste of Mexico to the community, also slated to open in early 2025.

Pho Noodle Go has already begun its soft opening at the former Pepper Jacks Grill location in Summit Woods Crossing. This new establishment will offer a selection of pho noodle soups and appetizers, with a full opening planned for later in 2025.

In addition to dining options, a redevelopment project is underway for the Quick Trip at 1001 Southwest Blue Parkway. The existing car wash is being demolished to make way for a new 5,300 square foot QT building, which will remain operational during construction and is expected to open in 2025.

On a larger scale, Discovery Park is progressing with its 3,900,000 square foot mixed-use project located off Northwest Colburn Road and Northeast Douglas Street. The first phase, known as The Village, is currently being graded, with the TownePlace Suites Hotel by Marriott set to be one of the first buildings in the area. This hotel will feature spacious rooms equipped with full kitchens, catering to both business and leisure travelers.

These developments reflect Lee's Summit's commitment to growth and community enhancement, providing residents with more options for dining, shopping, and hospitality. For more information on upcoming projects, residents can visit the city’s official website.
