Kansas City, Missouri - Large Needle and Button

A large needle in a park commemorates the "garment" district in Kansas City. It is a needle which stands in the hole of a red button. Probably about 12 to 15 feet tall. [Gailen Gillespie, 06/11/2008]

[RA: There is a larger giant needle and button in the Fashion district of New York City, looming over an info kiosk at 39th St. and 7th Ave. since 1995.]
