Kansas City Power and Light Building
Kansas City Power and Light Building, Art Deco skyscraper in Downtown Kansas City, United States.
The Kansas City Power and Light Building stretches 34 floors high with geometric shapes and ornamental details adorning its limestone and brick exterior walls.
Completed in 1931 during the Great Depression, this commercial structure stood as the tallest building west of the Mississippi River until the Space Needle construction.
The building represents the architectural evolution of Kansas City through its transformation from corporate offices to residential apartments and event spaces.
The structure contains seven elevators serving 210 modern apartments, with an event venue in the lobby that accommodates 500 guests.
The west facade lacks windows as it was constructed with a solid firewall, anticipating future neighboring developments that never materialized.
