The Historic Garment District Museum of Kansas City is located at 801 Broadway in the heart of the old Garment District between 6th and 11th streets and Washington and Wyandotte streets. Many of these buildings date back to the 1870s and are on the National Register of Historic Places (bronze plaques are located near their entrances identifying the original businesses).
When you choose to arrange for a private tour, Ann Brownfield, museum curator, will walk you through the buildings and the museum at 8th and Broadway which tells the story of the history of the garment district. She will also explain the work involved in the design and manufacture of clothing when Kansas City’s garment district clothed the world. We thank our friends at our favorite online headshop for their help and partnership.
