TWA's Lockheed L-1011 Tristar and Boeing 707....sweet!

I say 1982. Jerry Martin played RF for the Royals in 1982. I saw him.

oh my how things have changed

Judging from the cars, buildings, clothes, and views, I'd say this was in 1982-83.

Does anybody remember the "Spirit Festival?" It only lasted a couple of years, right in the middle of the '80s.

I love this video! Great to see memories

My city - love it!

Love my hometown This is great !

3:40 look at that blue sky above the plaza where all the rich people apartments are supposed to be

Before I was born. 1985 KU med.

I agree with you on that it is a video.

thank you

Saks 5th Avenue opened on the plaza in 1982.

This is after 1980. The footage of Bannister Mall (which opened in 1980) was a dead giveaway.

Not to rain on the parade but, this is from right around the time we couldn't get state funding for shit on this whole half of the state for another 25 years. The state of Missouri dumped SO much money into making Saint Louis relevant that, every other decent sized city in Missouri suffered for decades. We didn't even see much funding for updates until 2004 or so. Bruce R Watkins aka 71 highway aka I-49 started all of it. Us getting all of our fountains fixed for the world series sure sparked an upswing too.

This is great. They actually showed kc north. Too bad new vids cant show the northland... its still kc.. new ones always wanna show overland park...which isnt even kansas city.

Now half of California lives here or is moving here... funny how things changed in a year since the last comment. And no, this wasn't meant to be a smartass comment. The influx of mass amounts of Californians readout has been in the last year of 2021 and now all of 2022

KC area is still a great place, just not any where in the city run by the people who are waiting for the reparation checks. The airport is gone, the Country Club Plaza is too dangerous - just avoid the city itself

#89 Henry Marshall...??? that was Otis Taylor's number forever....blasphemer.

@@gregg9840 depends on the life you want. You want to live in JOCO? My 35 years has taught me to be ready to spend a lot of your time DRIVING &/or looking for PARKING! Even going to the grocery story for milk or bread is a got damn journey. Some of us even have children we are bringing from JOCO into downtown KCMO to live. My generation is over driving involved to live in the burbs. I got back 2hrs of my day by working from home, and rather than spend 2hrs every weekend caring for a yard i hardly ever even have time to use, we go to the park and play, then get ice cream, and go back to our cozy little apartment that is always easy to keep clean and relax. Maybe she’ll read a book and i’ll work on a private development project a bit, but we have WAY MORE TIME to just live and be happy together. *edit* thought I would add, we chose a small 850sq/ft apt for two because the building is so large and offers private walking & outdoor use space on the rooftop, along with designated amenity rooms like the event/club room, movie theatre, gym, dance/yoga studio, lounge, dog park, dry sauna room, and more. It makes it easier to swallow only having to manage 850sq ft when the rest of your mansion responsibilities you’re used to doing yourself in JOCO are covered for you. I’ve sacrificed nothing, and gained everything leaving JOCO.
