Christmas in Kansas City with the long running, holiday tradition of the PLAZA LIGHTS.
"The Plaza opened in 1923 to immediate success, and it has lasted with little interruption since that year.. The Country Club Plaza has had the longest life of any planned shopping center in the history of the world." "The Plaza Lights started with a string of 16 lights over a doorway in 1925. The first Plaza Lighting took place in 1930. Tower lights are always one color. For example, The Time Tower, at Broadway and Ward Parkway, is always red."
