Cat's Corner is long gone. The Lindy niche has been taken over by others.
This set of pages is kept here purely as an archive

(you know, preserving a little history which will otherwise be too forgotten!).
Nothing listed within the Cat's Corner area is current.

The church is on the Southeast corner of the three-way intersection

Youth Center Hall is the farthest Northeast entrance in the Church complex
and it can only be entered from Westport Road.

available for our group's parking. There is also parking along the street in front of the church on Westport Rd.

ECM building
Ecumenical Christian Ministries
1204 Oread
Lawrence,KS
If you've never been to Lawrence and your coming from Kansas City, I recommend you take I435 W to K-10 to Lawrence. K-10 eventually becomes 23rd Street once you hit Lawrence. After you pass Haskell Indian University your turn is coming up. Turn right on Massachusetts St. Keep driving until you come to 14th St and then take a left onto 14th St. You will go through a few stop lights, and go up a steep hill and reach a stop sign at Oread. Turn right onto Oread. You will go a few blocks. The ECM building should be on your right at the intersection of Oread and 12th St. You can park in the parking lot of the ECM which is on your right, just before you get to 12th St.

Look above at the Liberty directions... but once you turn from 23rd onto Massachusetts slow down when you pass the park and begin entering the downtown shopping zone. Flamingo Dance will be on the west (left) side of the street just past South Park.

But in case you're feelin lazy (ha ha) I'll tell you that it's near the Indian Creek Shopping Center in OP, KS. It's in the strip mall between 103rd and 105th between Metcalf and Marty. (This same mall has Fox & Hound pub). It's on the interior of the mall.

Coming from Midtown:
Take I-35 South to Hwy 69 South (Overland Parkway, not the first 69 S exit between Lamar & Antioch).
Exit 103rd St.
Turn east (left) and continue until Metcalf (Hwy 169)
South (right) on Metcalf.
Take the first left just after the bank --into the shopping center. Drive around to West interior parking lot.
It is South of the parking lot with Degage Dancewear.
If you turn onto Marty from 103rd St, turn left between the Phillips 66 and the Car Wash.

Coming from other planets:
I have no idea. You'd better check out Louis' website...
