Longview History

The World's Most Beautiful Farm.

New Longview is built upon the site of the historic Longview Farm and was owned by lumber-baron and notable Kansas Citian R.A. Long. Originally constructed in 1914, Longview Farm featured an indoor show-horse arena, a racetrack, multiple types of award-winning livestock, and over 50 distinctive stucco and red-tile roofed buildings. While most have been lost to time or progress, several buildings from the original Longview Farm remain and are now nestled into the fabric of New Longview daily life.

Twenty miles southeast of downtown Kansas City, Long’s legacy continues in what remains of the once glorious Longview Farm.
