Sure, it’s adjacent to the University of Missouri-Kansas City, but how well do you really know the Country Club Plaza?

On a recent segment of KCUR-FM’s Central Standard, Producer Matthew Long-Middleton traveled to the Country Club Plaza to find out the history and purpose behind the iconic (and sometimes polarizing), shopping district.

KCUR-FM is a service of the University of Missouri-Kansas City.
