Setup for the first event

The Renovation of this historical landmark in downtown Overland Park, KS Stone Manor Event is now open for business. Stone Manor is a historic building located in the heart of downtown Overland Park. Originally constructed in 1908 as the Strang Line Car Barn, the structure has been thoughtfully restored and transformed into a stunning 7,000-square-foot event space. The renovation preserved the building’s unique character while introducing modern amenities, including a new warming kitchen and bar, bridal and groom suites, and custom stone masonry designed to complement the original rustic style.

This one-of-a-kind venue offers a timeless atmosphere for weddings, corporate events, and private gatherings. The blend of historical charm and contemporary comfort makes Stone Manor a truly memorable destination for any occasion.

Here is an offering from their website: "Located in quaint downtown Overland Park, KS, Stone Manor on 79th is a one-of-a-kind space to host any special occasion. Housed in the historic Strang Line Car Barn built in 1908, the space offers the warmth and character of natural stone walls, a wood-planked barrel-roof ceiling, and crystal chandeliers. The entire event space has been fully renovated with modern day conveniences, including two bridal suites, while maintaining the beauty of its historical charm. This combination of character and convenience works effortlessly together to bring about an atmosphere that is unparalleled."
