INFO / TRANSIT:
The West Bottoms / Stockyards was once the center of the KC livestock exchange--a past still represented in the faded signs and preserved pictures found throughout the neighborhood. The mixture of re-purposed buildings and new additions in this eclectic neighborhood offers a unique shopping experience in the antique warehouses tucked beneath the overpasses, affordable bits and drinks, as well as fine dining options. We recommend a personal vehicle or Uber.
