About OldKC.com
The Kansas City metro area has changed dramatically over the last 50 years. While many historic homes and buildings have been well preserved more recent landmarks and businesses have fallen or will soon fall to rapid growth and aggressive development. With your help, this site will archive vintage ('40s-'70s) images of drive-ins, restaurants, movie theatres, bowling alleys, skating rinks, parks, shopping centers and amusement parks from areas like Bonner Springs, the Country Club Plaza, DeSoto, Downtown Kansas City, the East-Side, Gardner, Kansas City Kansas, Lawrence, Leavenworth, Leawood, Lenexa, Mid-Town, Merriam, Mission, North Kanas City, Olathe, Overland Park, Paola, Raytown, Shawnee Mission, Spring Hill, Westport and Waldo. There are also old pictures from cities outside the metro area like Columbia, Manhattan, McPherson, St. Louis, Topeka and Wichita
