- Kansas City: A Major Destination?
The answer to this question is still evolving, but Kansas City is making some waves on the travel scene. One interesting article discusses the seven new major sites that are set to open this year, including the nation’s only WWI museum, the new Bloch Building at the Nelson-Atkins, the Sprint Center, and the College Basketball Experience at the Sprint Center. Having lived in the area for over ten years now, I have to say that there is a buzz floating around about these additions to the area and about some of the proposed additions as well. While I doubt that Kansas City is high on the average person’s radar (it probably wouldn’t be at the top of my list if I didn’t live here), that could begin to change with some of these new sites. Kansas City is, particularly with these new offerings, bringing some unique attractions to the table that can’t be found elsewhere. Will it cause a major shift in tourist visits? Only time will tell, but the city does seem to be on the right track.
