Rosedale Neighborhood in Kansas

 I started the Rosedale Kansas tour on Monday.  This is still the adventure email from the public radio station, KCUR.   I took so many pictures trying to get enough to cover the snow days.

Rosedale is a neighborhood of Kansas City, Kansas.  At one time it was it's own city.  KU Medical Center takes up a big chuck of the neighborhood and runs along State Line.  



We started on 43rd St. (Westport Road in MO).
I have been wanting to stop by this mural for months.


Murals at 42nd and Mission.

It's hard to see but this mud puddle is over a foot deep.
They have covered another one with a piece of wood.


I drove through Rosedale park.


This is one of the roller coaster hills in Kansas City.

I found this building.


It says Post Office.
I can't find any history on the building at all.


This is why I stopped.


This is now a Mennonite Church. 
I walked all around the building and could not a cornerstone.


There is no history about the building on their website.


This theatre opened as Rosedale Theatre in 1922 as a silent movie theatre.
It is now a theatre event space.

I'm stopping here for today.  I could get out today but I'm retired and don't have to so I'm not.

Until tomorrow.
