Wreck of the Arabia (ecavation location) (Kansas City, Kansas)

USA / Missouri / Parkville / Kansas City, Kansas

The change in color of the topsoil at this location is most likely the former dig site of the wreck of the Arabia paddle steamboat. The boat sank at this location when the river ran through this area.
