Located in the urban core of Kansas City, Hyde Park goes north/south from Linwood Boulevard (32nd Street) to 47th Street and west/east from Gillham Road to Troost Avenue.

Hyde Park was a watering hole for pioneers heading west on the Santa Fe Trail. A stream and a cave with a natural spring made the area an ideal overnight spot for travelers. The neighborhood's history begins in the 1880s.

Today, Hyde Park is filled with mostly residents and some businesses along its Troost Avenue border. For more restaurants and bars, visit Westport and the Country club plaza which is less than 10 minutes away. If you are a jogger/biker, Gillham Park runs along the western border of Gillham Road. For more information, see William the host.

Just one block away is the Troost MAX which travels from downtown to the Crossroads district, Hospital Hill and south along Troost to Bannister. Troost MAX offers local service south of 75th Street. Other major destinations include the East Village development (currently under construction), Discovery Center, UMKC Hospital Hill and Main Campus, Rockhurst University, The Landing, Truman Medical Center, and Children’s Mercy Hospital. Park and Rides are located at 31st & Troost, 95th & Troost, and the Bannister & Hillcrest area. Trail Connections are a vital part of Troost MAX: a future trail between Troost & Bannister will connect to the Trolley Track Trail near 87th & Garfield.

MAX stations are well-lit and feature a distinctive, easily identifiable information marker, and a specially designed passenger shelter. The stations are clearly marked and named, featuring easy-to-understand route maps and real-time transit information. Riders have instant and constantly updated access to the exact arrival time through GPS technology and real-time signs at MAX stations.

Great house. Go birds!
We had a great time staying in the Westport area. About a 15 minute walk from Westport bars and restaurants. The house is beautiful and has plenty of space. Short ride to Arrowhead Stadium to watch the Eagles get a win! Go birds!!!

Great stay
Family trip to see Chiefs game with kids. Good location with quick, easy commutes which was important to us. Home is close to Nelson Art museum, Plaza, Downtown, and Union station. Great location for quick access to Chiefs/royals games, and entertainment. Absolutely never felt unsafe in the neighborhood, but the home is in a bit of a sketchy area of KC where abuts Troost Ave. Sirens occasionally woke us up on a couple of nights. Older home- renovated. Very clean. Nicely decorated. Beds comfortable. One bedroom was downstairs in basement. No bathroom downstairs, so used the shower/bathroom on the main living room. TV had a zillion channels and was tough to find ESPN/sports stations. Ended up just using airplay to the TV. We didn't cook but from looking at drawers seemed to have everything I would need. Enclosed backyard was ok and gives a place to hang-out outside the home. Did notice gas grill which appeared relatively new which we didn't use. Owner was very accessible and easy to work with. Would definitely recommend this place or others he may have. I would stay here again if back in the area.

Great Location for Nightlife
This is a great place to stay if you’re looking for a location near downtown and lots of great restaurants. The main downside is the house is not handicap accessible, and there is only street parking.

About the host

Hosted by William Bates

Host profile image
I am William Bates, a community and business professional with solid experience and knowledge of Kansas City communities and a passion to see these communities grow and thrive. I am a trained urban planner with a degree in Urban Studies from University of Missouri at Kansas City and a Master’s in Business Administration. I currently live in the Historic Manheim Park community where I have served in the past as a member of the Community Leadership Council (e.g., Board of Directors) and oversee all housing and infrastructure development projects on behalf of the community. I am currently active in the community working with the Urban Neighborhood Initiative, the Troost Community Investment District Development Committee and several other local organizations. I love Kansas City and I am eager to lend my time and talents to help our local communities grow and thrive.

I moved to Kansas City approximately ten years ago to attend the University of Missouri at Kansas City where I completed a bachelor’s degree in Urban Studies with a concentration in community development. Through my training, I developed a passion for working in Kansas City communities and specifically leveraging resources from various sources to help these communities to become safer, more livable places where residents are proud to call these communities home. My interest in Urban Neighborhoods stems from this passion to leverage my talents as an urban planner and my training/professional experience in business to help improve the lives of people who live in central Kansas City. Beyond working with Urban neighborhoods, I have a passion in gardening and renovating houses.
