Kansas City Power and Light 3D print model

The Kansas City Power & Light Building is a 481ft (147m) tall skyscraper in Kansas City, Missouri. Designed for its namesake energy company by architecture firm Hoit, Price & Barnes, the building was completed in 1931. The building stood as the tallest building in both the city and state. It was also the tallest building in the United States constructed West of the Mississippi River. Its classic art deco design and magnificent illuminated crown make it a cherished landmark of the city. While the Kansas City Power & Light Company has since gone out of business, the building's original name has remained and has come to lend its name to the Power & Light District, the surrounding area that features cultural attractions to revitalize downtown Kansas City. In the decades since the tower's opening, its offices have been vacated and the building has been converted to residential use.
