Description

Architectural rendering of the Liberty Memorial design proposal from Kansas City-based Henry F. Hoit, Edwin M. Price and Alfred E. Barnes. According to Derek Donovan's Lest the Ages Forget: Kansas City's Liberty Memorial, their entry was unranked by the 1921 memorial jury. "Hoit, Price and Barnes presented plans for a giant, ornamented obelisk that sat atop a large building ringed with columns. Their design was unique in that it set the monument at the extreme south edge of the cultural center's campus, instead of positioning it on the imposing hill opposite Union Station."
