The Reservoir Twins

Two veteran cottonwoods growing on Reservoir Hill in Historic Northeast Kansas City. They are huge. 

 

A Bridge So Far, Part Two

 Woodswether Road on the West Side of City Market leads down to my vantage point.  My last update was May 9th. A Bridge So Far   Below is what the new Buck O'Neil Bridge will look like.  Finished in 2024. 

                                                                These shots are all looking north.  

                                                                 Looking South.

Landscaping Historic Northeast

                                                                The Kansas City Museum. 

Below, directly across from the Museum is the Steven's Home, 1906.  The current owners have totally restored the home and purchased the lot next to it a few years ago.  They installed a formal garden this year. 

Below, directly across from the Museum to the East is Townley Manor, 1901.   The current director of the Kansas City Museum spent part of her childhood in this home.  It too has been totally restored.
