This building was originally the Richards & Conover Hardware Company founded after the Civil War. In 1928, an addition was constructed to house offices and retail space. Richards & Conover Hardware became known as one of the nation’s oldest and largest wholesale hardware, iron and steel distributers covering 10 states until 1948. The Richards & Conover Hardware building was added to the Historic Registry in 1998, and converted into lofts in the early 2000’s. This charming, riverfront community maintains a welcoming, small-town atmosphere. However, this city is still a lively place to be. Neighbors are friendly, resulting in a tight-knit feel in the middle of a bustling Missouri city. As a renter in River Market, you’ll quickly get to know your favorite coffee shop, restaurant, and gift store. Kansas City’s proud history stays alive in this picturesque, upscale neighborhood.

Richards and Conover is in a PRIME location for all commuters with easy access to hop on the highway. Steps outside your door you can shop an antique mall, visit multiple coffee shops, enjoy Betty Rae's ice cream and pick up your week's veggies at the market. Ask about current deals on this one!
