Crossroads District

Like its name suggests, this historic district connects Downtown to Mid-town and is where our city often comes together. Originally built up with turn of the 19th Century brick warehouses and businesses that served the adjacent railroad lines, The Crossroads has seen booms and busts over the years. The neighborhood is now enjoying a well-earned renaissance as a hub for the creative community and Kansas City’s thriving food and arts scene (notably on the first Friday of the month, when people flock for First Fridays). Many original structures have been rehabbed and repurposed and new businesses continue to set up shop here, from makers to brewers, tech startups to hair salons, ad agencies to tattoo studios.

The venerable printing technique known as letterpress is back in vogue and Hammerpress owner Brady Vest has been leading the renaissance. Full of texture and character, this vast array of cards and posters brighten any occasion. But his shop is just as cool, a restored mid-century modern gem stocked full with handcrafted home furnishings and gifts.
