Why this spot
1880s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Kansas River at its confluence with the Missouri River
Formed from Wyandotte City and neighbors consolidated as Kansas City, Kansas in 1886; the LOC title reads Kansas City, Wyandotte County, and the 1889 Sanborn is the earliest read coverage at the confluence.
