Plaza Area Plan Existing and Proposed Developments
-
Description
-
Map created by the Kansas City Landmarks Commission as part of a 1980s Plaza Plan presentation, encompassing an area from roughly 43rd Street south to 48th Street, and Wornall East to Oak Street. The map illustrates existing buildings, including Fountain View, One Main Plaza, and the Hilton Plaza Hotel; it also includes proposed projects such as Fountain View Two, a realignment of Main Street and Brookside Boulevard, and Brush Creek improvements. 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.
