Evereve — a Minnesota-based women’s clothing store — has closed its location on Kansas City’s Country Club Plaza after 10 years.

The company was told in November that the Plaza’s new owners would not be renewing its lease, said the store’s visual merchandiser Paige Habiger.

Its last day in the shopping center was Dec. 29. It held a space at 225 W. 47th St.

Evereve still has a location in Leawood at 4319 W. 119th St.

Several other stores have been leaving the Plaza. Mattress and bedding store Casper will soon add another vacant space when it shuts down Wednesday.

Including Evereve, at least 10 stores closed on the Plaza in 2024.

The shopping center was purchased by HP Village Partners last year, which owns Dallas’ luxury shopping center, Highland Park Village.

Ray Washburne, principal of HP Village, discussed with The Star in October his plans for the district, including a $100 million revamp and “addition through subtraction” by removing some tenants.

It will keep its Spanish-style look. A timeline for Plaza construction has not been announced.
