Super short thread of downtown KCMO from Strawberry Hill in KCK.

Great vantage point, and an angle I'm not sure I've seen before.
Thanks. I don't believe KCMO is seen from this particular angle often.

It's not often you get a glimpse of downtown from that angle!! I did it several years ago when I did a thread of KCK. I need to go back out there sometime and do an update!!

It's truly a unique view.

I'll have to get out there sometime again. It's a city with a lot of history, but very much overshadowed by KCMO and later the Johnson County area in Kansas.
