The Freedom Trail Memorial in Kansas City, MO, is a significant trailhead of the Riverfront Heritage Trail, commemorating the route that escaping slaves took to reach the Free State of Kansas during the Civil War.

This memorial serves as a starting point for the 15-mile bike and pedestrian pathway that spans two major rivers, two states, three counties, and three cities. It not only highlights the historical significance of the escape route for slaves but also showcases the West Bottoms' role in the construction of Kansas City's railroad and its subsequent economic development.
