Leroy “Satchel” Paige was the first Black pitcher to play in the American League and is widely considered to be among the greatest baseball players of all time. His legendary career spanned five decades, leading to his induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1971.
Multistudio helped ignite Pitch Perfect KC, a development team comprised of local professionals and stakeholders whose singular mission is the restoration of the historic Paige family home in Kansas City’s historic Santa Fe Neighborhood. The adaptive reuse project is being designed to tell the story of Paige’s professional career and family life. Major supporting program spaces will include exhibition space, an office incubator, a neighborhood meeting room, a coffee/gift shop, and a covered outdoor event area.
