On 27 February 2010, continuing the tour around Kansas City, I took the following photos at a pedestrian area north of 2nd and Main near downtown Kansas City. Main Street now ends at 2nd Street; north of there is access to private parking lots. A pedestrian bridge goes over old 1st Street, the railroad tracks and the floodwall.
The first two shots are looking north toward the end of the pedestrian bridge.
A view of the Broadway Bridge
Views of the ASB and Heart of America bridges
At the end of the pedestrian bridge are a flight of stairs and an elevator. The next set of shots are at ground level.

Going east toward the ASB/HOA
Interesting piece of art...possibly a bike rack. This area is popular for bicyclists.
Pet nature control measure!
Old concrete structures and abandoned bridging
Returning to the stairway, some plaques showing high-water lines for three notable Missouri river floods
The remaining photos are working back south on the pedestrian bridge, including remnants of 1st Street.
