This was once a busy agricultural hub, selling produce on Old Missouri 210 Highway; it bustled with activity near Liberty and Missouri City. Now new 210 has rerouted most of the traffic and the barn isn't on the way to anywhere except a city park, which is mostly used seasonally, so it's abandoned and falling in on itself.
I used to stop there frequently to buy potatoes and other produce...
Cathy, I cycle past this place all the time, frequently stopping to sketch it or the surrounding area.
ReplyDeleteI thought of you that day! I was sure I remembered you sketching it too...
ReplyDeleteIt definitely enriches our world to tell the stories of places.
