Whether they’re glaring orange or shining a jewel-like glow, city streetlights cast their glow across the streets of Kansas City. They’re a part of the night sky, outshining the stars, moon and flashing airplanes gliding up above. But these lights can also cast an unwanted glare on communities and businesses in a region known for its urban blight and high crime rates.
For the past several years, Jim Scott and David Warm spent many sleepless nights worrying about how their project, the Linwood Area Ministry Place (LAMP), a campus of community services at Linwood Boulevard and Bruce R. Watkins Drive, would survive and thrive in a neighborhood that has long suffered from white flight and disinvestment.
Now LAMP is about to open 30 new apartments for families emerging from homelessness, as well as a variety of other programs and community services. But the project’s future is only partly assured, and its success depends on how well it can serve the broader neighborhood.
