39th St, KC, MO (II)



39th St, KC


39th St, KC


Here is another selection of images made along Kansas City's 39th St. These photographs could be described as impressions really, more than that of a guide book document. 39th St is a place I visit often. It has some great restaurants, an excellent vintage clothes store and a very good second hand music shop. It is also the home of Prosperos Books which is a used book store full of rare and hard to find gems.

39th St is one of the earliest suburban neighborhoods to flourish in Kansas City's turn of the last century's expansion, 39th Street West was served by two light rail lines: a single-track streetcar line running to Rosedale, and the "Strang Line" providing a direct connect to areas further south, like Olathe.
