Discover Ambassador, a historic gem at the corner of Broadway and Knickerbocker Street. Built in the 1920s, it proudly held the title of Kansas City's largest apartment hotel. Just like the beautiful architecture of Country Club Plaza, Ambassador showcases the Spanish Revival Style, featuring charming painted stucco, decorative tiles, terra cotta accents, tile roofs, and intricate ironwork. Ambassador's central location makes it easy to quickly access the Plaza, Westport, and Downtown in a matter of minutes. Experience the best of both worlds in our newly restored apartments. With 112 studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, each space combines modern design with a nod to history. Our rooftop lounge and deck provide a gathering place for residents. Ambassador's rooftop garden was a favorite spot for stars like Kim Novak, offering a stunning view of the city and a touch of glamour from the past. The rooftop lounge is the perfect place to entertain, relax, or work. Experience complimentary access to our must-have Neighborhood Amenities, such as lively Resident Events, Gillham Dog Park, and the IBM Lounge. Residents can also customize amenities with our Neighborhood Amenity Memberships to unlock access to the Carriage House Pool and Lounge and the fully equipped fitness center at The Gymnasium at the nearby Bellerive.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
