9/2, Kansas City

Kenny and Winnie - who generously put me up in one wing of their vast mansion - and Kyle took me on a nighttime driving tour of what felt like most of Kansas City, from hip singles neighborhood (with bubble tea!) to mallified business district to tragically dead downtown.

I can't get over Kansas City's wonderful architecture: 19th-century mercantile buildings and strangely lit industrial towers and an ominous, Orwellian new courthouse. This is a city that's begging to be captured on film.
