Briarcliff Trails of Our Community is underway with our next big restoration project! We recently removed all the thick vines and brush on an historic chimney located behind The Ravello Condominiums in Briarcliff. This chimney was a part of the hunting lodge of L.T. Martin, owner of Martin Printing in Downtown Kansas City. A 1950s street map locates the lodge on Weston Street. The old Weston Street started at the fork of Briarcliff Road and what is now Claymont Drive. All that remains now is the fireplace and stonework outlining a garage, and a staircase to a lower garage just off Platte Road (U.S. 71) to Riverside. Below are before and after pictures of the chimney during the vine removal process. We would like to thank Eden Tree Services for their impeccable work! We ask that you respect the privacy of The Ravello property, and view the chimney from 9 Highway.
