For those who haven't seen this one already, here's a great look at local medical quackery that was once a grand KCMO display. Take a look:
Why was there a huge steel tank at 33rd and Harrison in the 1920s?
I recently stumbled upon a vintage postcard that showed a huge metal structure called "the tank" at 3310 Harrison. A little research turned up a fascinating story about the tank and the reaction of the neighbors in the North Hyde Park neighborhood when it was in place in the 1920s.
Cool story!
