Riverfront Heritage Trail Beneath a Steel Rail Trestle in Kansas City
April 2019

Beneath the skeletal lattice of steel girders, the Riverfront Heritage Trail in Kansas City, Missouri, cuts through a corridor of industrial history.

Today, the pathway carries cyclists and walkers under the same towering beams that supported freight trains a century ago, blending the legacy of industry with modern urban renewal. The evening light reveals the quiet symmetry and endurance of this monumental structure, a relic turned passageway through time.
