Abandoned Kansas City: Beauty in the Forgotten
Kansas City's abandoned schools and businesses tell stories of growth, decay, and urban exploration.The crossroad of the Midwest, Kansas City has grown from a small town to the large metropolis that it is today. As infrastructure has done nothing but expand, some businesses, schools, and even homes have been left for larger and sometimes newer locations that can accommodate the increasing population and the demand of today's consumer. New schools are built, and businesses move on, but what happens to these structures after they have served their purpose? For many of us, known as urban explorers, these buildings still have a story to share. Despite the risks and dangers of structural integrity and law enforcement, urban explorers still pursue the history left in their remnants. These photos show the stories of schools that now sit as reminders of days gone by, and of business that once brought in happy customers only to face permanent closure. This book is an altruistic reality of how expansion pushes these buildings into obscurity and decay.

Daniel, Regina
Regina Daniel specializes in urban exploration photography. She is also the owner and operator of Red Vixen Photography. Covering much of the Kansas City area and surrounding vicinities, she has gone on to travel through seven states in the Midwest doing her abandoned photography. What started as curiosity for the abandonment has turned into documenting the forgotten or lesser-known history lessons and photographing what has stood the test of time. That change from curiosity to preservation led her to write the Abandoned Kansas City book series, Abandoned Eastern Kansas, and Abandoned Pitcher, Oklahoma.
