The Robert Frazier Gift Shop
is filled with wonderful items such the collectible books,
note cards, and one of a kind accessories. 
Look for our online gift shop coming soon.

The Robert Frazier Gallery of Contemporary Art 
is housed in the historical F. W. Woolworth Building 
on Troost Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri.
It had a close association with the development 
of commerce along Kansas City's electric streetcar lines. 
The streetcar played an important role in the growth 
and economic development of the city and attracted the 
interest of Woolworth's Five-and-Ten-Cent chain store. 

The company developed a policy of placing "suburban" stores 
at transfer points along streetcar lines to take advantage
of heavy pedestrian traffic.  Woolworth's had three stores outside 
the central business district but this is the only pre-WWII 
suburban Woolworth's building extant in the city. 
Constructed in 1927, the building housed the company's store 
through the 1950s.
