Park Place Flower Market

By Chris Packham

Published on September 03, 2008 at 2:01am

Previously decentralized Kansas suburb Leawood now sports a shiny, retrofitted downtown nucleus, previously a small town in Wales which was dismantled, shipped to the United States in cargo containers, transported to the Midwest and meticulously reconstructed brick-by-brick in Kansas. Shoppers in the new, contemporary retail outlets and residents of the new "downtown" loft living at Park Place can now enjoy Thursday flower markets featuring flora by Rosehill Gardens, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Thursdays, 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Starts: Sept. 4. Continues through Oct. 16, 2008
