Additional Information

Originally founded in the 1920s as the Meyer Boulevard Evangelical Church, this Brookside landmark served local families for decades before officially becoming the Meyer Boulevard United Methodist Church following a national denominational merger in 1968. Over time, the congregation joined with Central United Methodist, the oldest Protestant church in Kansas City, to remain a cornerstone of the neighborhood.
