1587 Prime
Kansas City, MO
Story
1587 Prime is the flagship steakhouse co-founded by Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce — its name a nod to their iconic jersey numbers — in partnership with hospitality group Noble 33. Located at 1500 Baltimore Ave in the heart of downtown Kansas City, the restaurant specializes in prime beef, American Wagyu, and Japanese A5 Wagyu, complemented by chef-driven preparations, signature sauces, and a handcrafted cocktail program. Designed for elevated dining, private celebrations, and special nights out, 1587 Prime blends modern steakhouse tradition with live music and a dynamic atmosphere that reflects the energy of the city itself.
The Smart Lighting Company specified the HB50B linear LED fixtures to illuminate the dramatic glass and metal façade, creating a striking first impression from the street. Mounted at grade level, the fixtures graze upward across the building's corrugated translucent panels, producing a warm amber wash that accentuates the texture and depth of the architectural cladding. The layered grid of bronze framing and illuminated panels commands attention after dark, drawing the eye from street level up through the building's full height, while potted evergreens lining the entrance catch the warm spill light and soften the contemporary exterior into a welcoming arrival experience.
The HB50B is purpose-built for exactly this type of high-intensity architectural grazing application. Powered by Nichia bin-sorted LEDs with output up to 1,400lm/ft, a single fixture can reach walls up to 80 feet tall — delivering the punch required to light a multi-story curtain wall from a low mounting position while maintaining the rich, warm color quality that defines 1587 Prime's after-dark presence. An IP66 wet-location rating, extruded aluminum housing, and industry-leading thermal management ensure the fixtures perform reliably through Kansas City's demanding climate, while Quik Lok daisy-chain connectivity keeps the installation clean and discreet at street level.
