Kansas City- City Market History, Murals & More

Early Days for the Town of Kansas

Lewis and Clark Statue

The history of Kansas City began in the 1800’s. People moved here from New York, Chicage, Italy and many other areas all looking for a new and better life. There is a reason The Town of Kansas was called the wild wild west. From Outlaws and saloons to Mafia and Firefighters, the blend of cultures and how we became Kansas City is a long and twisted road. Join me to discover and see where it all happened.
