Post by iamjacobm »

Tons of great shots of all the businesses using old limestone mines as their space. One of the coolest things I have seen in a while.

Clearly that was built and is inhabited by aliens, in conjunction with the shadow government

Did this use to have a way more generic name like "Ford Storage" or something along those lines?

I've never heard it referred to as anything but subtropolis.

Weren't we trying to get Elijah Wood in there when that comet was bearing down on us in the 90's?....

If you ever go to the Ameristar casino down there you'll pass this area. If you don't know where you're going you may end up on a maze of roads that lead in there and trap you! :)

There are some similar places in KC with different names. My former employer had a location at one called "Kansas City Space Center" near Independence.
