List of tallest buildings in Kansas City

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kansas City is a very diverse city, not only with its culture, but also in its skyscrapers. The city, like most other large US cities, has an eclectic mixture of old and new buildings. Many buildings manage to incorporate art deco themes in a number of ways, for example the Kansas City Power and Light Building, Municipal Auditorium, and the newly added Bartle Hall Pylons.
