East Bottoms

The East Bottoms is a historic industrial and commercial district, renamed Northeast Industrial District (NEID), in Kansas City, Missouri. It occupies a large alluvial floodplain shaped by the confluence of the Missouri River, which forms its northern border, and the Blue River, which forms its eastern border. Geographically isolated by high bluffs surrounding major rivers and riverbottoms, the area's history is defined by cycles of settlement, destruction by flood, and engineered reinvention. Its permanent settlement by Americans began in 1826 as French Bottoms, a vibrant fur trader settlement of intermarried French Creole and native Osage. French Bottoms was soon completely erased from the landscape by the Great Flood of 1844, so i+n 1850, Kansas, Missouri, was legally incorporated to include the former French Bottoms and rename this part of it "East Bottoms". Kansas became Kansas City, with East Bottoms as its historical point of origin. The riverbottoms was remade as an industrial heartland, driven by the expansion of the railroads into a hub for heavy manufacturing, breweries, and grain elevators. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, East Bottoms hosted the innovative Heim Electric Park and became a streetcar suburb. Catastrophic floods, particularly the Great Flood of 1951 and 1993, prompted a massive federal response from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which encased the district in an extensive system of levees and floodwalls. The modern rehabilitation of East Bottoms has spanned the late 20th and the 21st centuries, renaming it NEID. One century of industrial domination necessitated large-scale remediation efforts, including of significant pollution of the Blue River. Adaptive reuse of its monumental brick warehouses and factories began transforming some into popular destinations like the historically preserved J. Rieger & Co. Distillery and the Knuckleheads Saloon music venue, and restoring some identity as a cultural and entertainment spot. That residential enclave of a few hundred people and retail destination are dwarfed within NEID's vast landscape of factories, warehouses, public utility plants, railroads, and rivers.
