Take a ride through parts of the first and oldest open air shopping center in the nation, and parts of the historic neighborhood just to the south. The Plaza. Established in 1928 by J.C. Nichols has mostly Spanish architecture, many shops, bars nightclubs, restaurants, sidewalk cafes, parks, theater, and many unique fountains and statues. Brush Creek also runs through the area and offers boat rides. It was in the 80's today, and many people were out, the sidewalk cafes were very busy with the afternoon lunch crowd. The area is a high density area with many apartments, condos etc. Some are affordable, and others are very upscale. The historic neighborhood south is mostly upscale. Some of the houses are built into the side of the hill overlooking the shopping district. Hope you enjoy the sight seeing tour and the music.
