            Alexander Majors House 1856
Restoration Completed April 1984

Built in 1856 by Alexander Majors, one of the early developers of commerce in Kansas City, this house served as a base of operations on the Santa Fe Trail for Russell, Majors and Waddell, a pioneer western transportation company. In 1855 the firm organized a system of freight wagon trains serving all western forts. In 1859, it founded the Central Overland Stage. In 1860 it established the famous Pony Express which provided a national and international mail service. These operations contributed greatly to the development of the west and the nation.

This stagecoach sits on the property.
