Kansas City is an ever-growing metropolis. Every day the city's expansion reaches out just a little bit farther. Along with this expansion comes more infrastructure and the need for space. Sometimes the structures that sit upon the coveted land can be utilized in the plans, while other buildings stand in the way. In this next installment of Abandoned Kansas City, even more forgotten and vacant places tell their stories of the past, their decline into abandonment, and their present-day outcomes. Each of these places have historical significance, whether they are documented in the city's foundation or survive in the memories of those who remember them. Now they all share the same emptiness and neglect after their purpose has been served.

Beyond the wheat fields and off the beaten path, these abandoned and forgotten places lay in wait to tell their stories of a more productive and useful time. From small towns to ghost towns and all the places in between, the vastness of Eastern Kansas can be seen as a curse that will slowly drain a place dry or an untapped resource. Even though these locations are far from the ever-growing city's reach, they face the same fate when expansion is needed for improvements, or there isn't enough demand to continue daily operations. However these stories play out, all that is left is a reminder of what used to be: abandoned relics of lives, dreams, and businesses scattered across the open heartland of Eastern Kansas
