Kansas City and its core neighborhoods are captured here as they appeared in 2015, defined by the heavy infrastructure of the Missouri River and Kansas River confluence. The landscape is a dense assembly of historic districts like Westport and French Bottom, industrial hubs such as Leeds, and significant educational institutions including the Kansas City Art Institute and the University of Missouri-Kansas City. Transportation networks dominate the northern half, where the Charles B. Wheeler Downtown Airport sits within the Kansas River Bend, while several major crossings including the Paseo Bridge and Broadway Bridge link the downtown core to North Kansas City. Notable green spaces and legacy sites like Loose Memorial Park and Forest Hill Cemetery break the urban grid, offering a clear view of the city’s residential and memorial landscape as it transitioned into the mid-2010s.
