Nice write-up of this town's sketchy architectural history & development schemes and how they always seem to come crashing down. Take a look:
40 Years ago, the collapse of one of Kansas City's most iconic buildings shocked the architecture world
Missouri Valley Special Collections, Kansas City Public Library / Report on the Kemper Arena Roof Collapse On June 3, 1979, the Kemper Arena hosted a convention of America's top architects. The group gathered inside the West Bottom's sleek modernist arena, a structure it recognized as "one of the finest buildings in the nation."
Never hire a dumb ass faggot German architect or engineer. Hire one with a degree from University of Illinois or Iowa State.
ReplyDelete^^^^^ Sorry, i'd like an architect from a decent school. Btw, it was a dumb design either way tough guy. And your obsession with gay people just means that they're on your mind constantly. Sorry you think about the sausage nightly. Maybe take up a different hobby.

ReplyDeleteI seem to recall a concert not long before the joint fell apart, except I thought it was Rod Stewart
Jethro Tull played a concert there April 27th, 1979 and the Kansas city Kings played a game against the Boston Celtics there April 30th 1979
