Just a picture of downtown Kansas City (looking south across the river) from an unnamed parking garage. (and if you know where I was taking this picture, hush.) Let me add that I really dislike driving my 7 ft 1 inch 12 passenger van through a 7 ft 2 inch clearance parking garage. Though it's just the lowest level that is that low.
