FEATURED PARK

BLIND BOONE

The park that is now known as Blind Boone Park used to be the park designated for African American residents of Warrensburg until the Brown vs Board of Education of Topeka, KS Supreme Court ruling that mandated the integration of public accommodations. The Blind Boone Park Renovation Group was formed in 2000 to restore the park. In 2003, a statue of John William “Blind” Boone, a famous musician who grew up in Warrensburg, was erected in the park by noted sculptor, Ai Qiu Hopen. The Renovation Group also installed exhibits about Boone's life, which were made accessible for those with vision impairments. The restored park features a scent garden, wind harp, gazebo, and reflexology path. It is ideal for family outings or quiet contemplation and has Braille signage.

Rethink Maguire (formerly known as the Maguire Street Corridor Project), is the City of Warrensburg’s process to transform the Maguire Street corridor which connects U.S. 50 to the University of Central Missouri and the larger community. Rethink Maguire is engaging city residents, businesses and stakeholders in crafting a vision for the improvements needed to upgrade this corridor to improve the quality of life and enhance safety for residents and visitors through modern, resilient infrastructure.

What’s Going On? RETHINK MAGUIRE HAS REACHED SEVERAL MILESTONES

In October 2023, the project was awarded a $280,000 federal Safe Streets for All grant to develop a Safety Action Plan and demonstration projects.

•

In 2021, Warrensburg voters approved a $17 million bond initiative to support the project’s development and execution.

•

A 2010 TIGER II/HUD Community Challenge planning grant awarded for the Maguire Street Corridor Plan.

•

The project corridor includes Maguire Street from Cooper Boulevard north of the U.S. 50 interchange to Broad Street in Warrensburg, Missouri. The Maguire Street corridor is the highest-volume thoroughfare in the city with nearly 18,000 trips per day.

With your help, we can Rethink Maguire!

Visit the project website, sign-up for updates, participate in surveys, and look for ways you can help shape the future of Maguire.

On November 2, a workshop was held to collect ideas about the future of Maguire.

Dozens of residents shared their thoughts about the challenges and opportunities of a reimagined Maguire corridor.

Ped Pedestrian and bicycling connections will be enhanced through the installation of a proposed 10-feet wide sidewalk along Maguire Street. This will provide more protection to pedestrians and bicyclists traveling the corridor. The sidewalk will connect to the new and existing infrastructure.

The persistent flooding occurring west of Maguire Street between Young Street and North Street is a consequence of unconnected stormwater infrastructure. Improving stormwater collection along Maguire Street and evaluating improvements to conveyance and storage west to Shepard Park provides a comprehensive analysis of stormwater management in this area.

CORRIDOR CONFIGURATIONS The Maguire Street corridor is the highest-volume thoroughfare in the city with nearly 18,000 trips per day.

Rethink Maguire aims to improve reliability, safety, and multimodal travel along the corridor.

Alongside the community, the team will evaluate potential repairs to several infrastructure assets along the corridor including an aging interchange bridge, an aging railroad overpass bridge, cracked pavement, and aging signs and traffic signals, among other placemaking initiatives including burying overhead utilities.

CITY CONNECTIONS Increased access for all residents of Warrensburg, especially those within low-income neighborhoods, is one of the primary goals of the project.

This means better infrastructure for providing critical transportation services for residents who do not have access to personal transportation and increased connectivity for residents who live south of U.S. 50 to jobs and necessities north of U.S. 50.

NORTH LINKS The City has steadily invested in planning and roadway improvments from Cooper Boulevard to Broad Street to upgrade urban and rural transportation on the north side of the city. The interchange at U.S. 50 is being evaluated and would serve as the northern gateway into Warrensburg.

SOUTH GATEWAY The Rethink Maguire project will encompass many improvements.

One pillar throughout the study will be exploring opportunities for placemaking. Placemaking is a participatory process for shaping public spaces that harnesses the ideas and assets of the people who use it. The study team will be exploring opportunities to better improve transportation access to and from the University of Central Missouri Campus and opportunities to create spaces for all our community to enjoy.
