More Downtown KC


Took another sojourn thru the downtown area... northwest side of town along 8th Street mostly. The old Garment District... buildings from the 1880s and early 1900s. The first two shots show the New England building.

"Spot"
Thayer Place
State Street Building.... beautifully landscaped. Next eight shots.






Eight Street... lofts and offices. The entrance to the 8th Street Tunnel was in that green patch just ahead of where I'm standing. The tunnel ran down to the West Bottoms to provide quicker access to that area and the Union Depot which was still located there prior to Union Station's completion in 1914.

Entrance to the Garment District Museum.
