Chouteau Society Markers and other Treasures

I found a park on top of a garage with a hotel.


Coffee Shop


And this beauty, Municipal Auditorium Arena


Up on my park the columns lead to the view of the arena


Little Theater on the left

Music Hall on the right.


On the side - Comedy, Drama, Tragedy




Kansas City Convention Center


I found all of these things.  Guess what I didn't find - Marker 1.  I walked around for 40 minutes and walked around 2 blocks.  


I found Marker 2!!


Near the gold dome church

Marker #3


I only found 5 of the 11 markers.  I was directed to Case Park.  One of my favorite spots in the city.  Also it had 3 more markers.
  


One picture I got was the Buck O'Neil Bridge.
It's being replaced.

So tomorrow I will try to find the rest.
