West bottoms, Kansas CIty, Missouri.Painting names down the edge of buildings like this was done so it would show looking doen the street. The buildings were densely packed and relatively tall, challenging the height of the skyline of the commercial buildings downtown in the late 1800s and early 1900s. The difference is that the west bottoms was approoximately 100 feet lower, under the hill where downtown Kansas CIty was built on a promnitory.
