About this map

Union Station serves as the bustling rail hub of this 1930s landscape, where the Missouri River and Kansas River meet. The map reveals a city in its industrial prime, with the massive Stockyards dominating the river bottoms and a dense network of lines including the Kansas City Southern RR and Missouri Pacific RR threading through the urban core. Residential expansion is marked by a vast array of neighborhood schools like Scarritt Sch and Southwest High Sch, alongside significant civic landmarks such as the Liberty Memorial and General Hospital.
