Bookworms, rejoice! Giant book spines make up the south wall of the Central Library's parking garage on 10th Street. The Community Bookshelf features 22 different spines, reflecting the different reading interests of Kansas City. Members of the community suggested books to put on display and the The Kansas City Public Library Board of Trustees ultimately chose which ones would be showcased. Completed in 2004, the bookshelf beautifies the parking garage and adds charm to the city's landscape.

With a very famous barbeque style and an annual Jazz and Heritage Festival, Kansas City doesn't even need to try very hard to impress. However, this city in America's Heartland is filled with much more than just smoked ribs and excellent music halls. Locals tell us to "expect the unexpected" if you're planning on a trip to Kansas City. Read on for our selections of the Best Unique Things To Do in Kansas City.
