Welcome to the 5th installment of our Legislative Focus Week on Infrastructure here in Missouri. Today’s topic will be my favorite infrastructure pieces across our state. Today is the first day version of our Legislative Focus and the first to fall on a Sunday. Let’s go!
To start off, let’s start locally here in @KCMO with our KC Streetcar! I’m a huge proponent of public transportation and I’m excited for the Streetcar extension coming soon.
Constructed in the mid-1950’s, Table Rock Lake is a gem here in Missouri. Just as gorgeous as the Ozarks (my opinion), and usually less crowded. A great summer getaway spot for Missourians and tourists alike.
Back to KCMO! This project has not yet been completed but that doesn’t mean I’m not super excited about it. The new MCI Airport will soon be here in a few years and I cannot wait for the possibilities it will bring.
Off to St. Louis. This is a classic structure in Missouri and one of the most recognizable pieces of architecture in the entire country. The Gateway Arch is a national treasure and I’m so proud it resides here in Missouri.
Lets finish in KC. Like the Gateway Arch, Arrowhead Stadium may also not be stereotypical infrastructure pieces, but they are woven into our society none the less. This building means so much to so many people, and I’m stoked for our Chiefs this season! #ChiefsKingdom
What are your favorite infrastructure pieces here in Missouri? Feel free to share your ideas. Happy Sunday everyone!
