About the Heartland Region
GSA’s Region 6 represents the states of Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri and Kansas — providing superior customer service and workplace solutions for our federal customers.
The Heartland Region’s real estate portfolio includes 23 million square feet of space in 57 federally owned and 335 leased buildings in the region. Our Kansas City-based headquarters is also home to the federal government’s Facilities and Construction purchasing category and the hardware and tools subcategory — responsible for more than a billion dollars in facility-and-construction-related supply purchases each year.
We leverage our buying power to ensure we provide our customers with products and services that are the best use of taxpayer funds.
Regional Office Building
Since 2014, the Heartland Region’s headquarters has been located at 2300 Main St. in Kansas City, Missouri, and demonstrates the principles of GSA’s Federal Coworking Space. More square footage is allocated for collaboration, such as meeting areas and conference rooms, than square footage allocated to personal space. Workstation panels are lower and there is greater access to day lighting and views for associates. There are also fewer walls, and most walls are situated in the interior of the space.
