KC Restoration is excited to share our work at the Aladdin Hotel, a historic hotel in downtown Kansas City, MO built in 1925. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this hotel boasts 16 stories and was extensively restored in 2007 to bring back the original art deco ambiance. The original building was modeled in the Italian Romanesque style with a blue terra cotta pyramidal roof. KC Restoration has just refinished the front bronze exterior planters, and are moving into the hotel to refinish their elevators.
Through the years the hotel has played host to several well-known figures of the past including Mickey Mantle, Greta Garbo, and several supposed mobsters during the 1920’s and 1930’s. Imagine all the people who stayed with this grand dame and what would be said if the walls could talk. We are pleased to be part of the team working on keeping this historic hotel beautiful and vibrant. It is one of the gems of Kansas City’s architectural heritage.
