Photo Finish Part III


Once again with Tess and Photographer Randy Davis, this story was about a new restaurant opening in the Crossroads District in Downtown KC. The woman being interviewed in the picture was upset because of rumors circulating about her business. People had been spreading rumors and circulating what she called false ads claiming it was going to be an "ethnic nightclub" when she was claiming it was a restaurant. Because of the rumors, her neighbors in the crossroads were blocking her application for a liquor license. The neighborhood didn't want a "hip hop club" and the most effective way of blocking it was to cut off their booze. The owner did the interview in hopes of convincing neighbors and the public that she wasn't opening a club. I just hope the giant dance floor and disco ball you can see above Randy didn't hurt her case any...
