Plaza Area Plan Parks and Boulevards
-
Description
-
Map created by the Kansas City Landmarks Commission as part of a 1980s Plaza Plan presentation, encompassing an area from State Line Road east to The Paseo, and from Westport Road and 39th Street south to 55th Street. The map illustrates parks and boulevards within the area boundaries, including Westwood, Southmoreland, and Loose Parks, as well as the dates each park was established. Area plans, dealing with transportation, development, and zoning, among other factors, were developed over time for a number of Kansas City areas and are intended to provide guidance for their growth and design.
