Found holiday decorations in Kansas City
While strolling near Union Station in downtown Kansas City this afternoon, I found a box of holiday decorations abandoned on a bench around 2:30 p.m. It’s a jumble of garlands, a string of lights, red ribbons, and a tiny lantern. I picked it up, thinking someone must be frantically searching for it, and I tucked it under my arm for safekeeping. It felt good to help someone out, even if I don’t know who it belongs to yet.
Lost coins in City Market area, Kansas City
Hi, I'm Jordan Collins. I misplaced my coin collection while browsing the City Market area this morning, around 10:40 a.m. I had it tucked into a small blue denim pouch with a faded logo, and I must have set it down while I checked a vendor's display near the fountain. The collection isn't valuable in money, but it matters to me: pennies from the 1940s, a few foreign coins, and a worn silver dollar that belonged to my grandfather. I retraced the brick walkways and checked the stalls from the market to Union Station, but the pouch vanished into the crowd. It feels personal and I’m hoping someone picked it up and kept it safe. Please contact through the site if you recognize it.
Found hand tools near Union Station
I was tidying up the garage near Westport when I spotted a metal toolbox tucked behind a paint shelf. Around 4:30 pm Friday, I found it by Union Station in Kansas City, with a handful of hand tools spilled onto the concrete. Inside was a claw hammer, a yellow tape measure, and several screwdrivers with red handles, a bit dusty and well-used. It looked like someone had hurried off and left them behind. I’ve kept the toolbox safe here and will hold onto it until the owner names it. If this sounds like yours, please confirm through the site.
LOST: Student ID
I lost my student ID on Tuesday around 6:45 PM near Union Station in Kansas City. The card has my photo and name, and it's essential for class check-ins and library access. I remember heading to the bus stop after a long day and must have dropped it on the plaza outside Union Station's doors. Without it, I can't get into the campus facilities, which makes mornings stressful. Losing something with my face on it feels personal and frustrating, but I stay hopeful that it will turn up with the right person.
Found Belts in Kansas City, MO
Today around 9:07 a.m., I found a belt behind a vendor stall in the City Market area of downtown Kansas City. It’s a brown leather belt with a brass buckle, a bit worn but still sturdy. I pictured the owner rushing between the bakery stalls and the fountain, searching for something they’ve misplaced, and felt a responsibility to reunite it with them. I’m keeping it safe here until the owner claims it, and I hope the rightful owner is reading this.
Lost sheet music in Crossroads Arts District
Hi, I’m Grace Thompson, a pianist studying in Kansas City. I had my sheet music for a recital in the Crossroads Arts District around 2:15 p.m. yesterday, tucked into a black binder in my backpack. I stopped for a quick coffee at a shop on 19th Street, and when I stepped back outside, a gust blew the binder shut, and the pages got lost. I retraced my steps along the brick storefronts, by J. Rieger & Co. and the fountain, but I couldn’t locate them. These are irreplaceable practice copies with notes I’ll need for the performance.
Postcards found near Union Station, Kansas City
I found a small stack of postcards on the sidewalk outside Union Station in Kansas City around 4:15 p.m. on Saturday. The cards are worn at the edges, showing a mix of scenes: the KC skyline at dusk, a riverfront photo, and a handwritten note on the back with a date I can't quite read. They’re creased, the corners frayed, and they still smell faintly of old ink and travel. It felt like I stumbled onto a little time capsule, and I couldn't help but wonder who they belong to and what stories they carry.
Lost contact lens case with two lenses
I lost my contact lens case and two lenses yesterday around 3pm near the City Market at 5th Street and Delaware in Kansas City, MO. The case is white with a blue lid, and there's a tiny red sticker with the initials 'SD' on the lid. One lens has a small scratch along the edge, the other lens is clear and undamaged. I really need them back — these are daily lenses I rely on every day, and replacing them locally isn't easy. If someone found them, I'd be grateful for a return; I can meet up near the market or coordinate a quick pickup through the app.
Gold-tone bracelet with turquoise pendant, initials engraved
I found a gold-tone bracelet with a small turquoise pendant this afternoon around 2:15pm near the Country Club Plaza entrance on 47th Street in Kansas City. It's about 7 inches long, slim, and in decent condition with a few tiny scratches along the back. The clasp bears a tiny 'S' maker's mark, and inside the clasp there's an engraving 'L.T.' plus a little red enamel heart charm on the dangle. It feels sentimental, like it could be someone’s cherished piece. If this is yours, email me at [email protected] and we can meet near the Plaza security desk to arrange a safe return.
Cobalt ceramic sculpture, signed
I was helping out at a tiny weekend pop-up in the Crossroads when I realized my cobalt ceramic sculpture went missing yesterday around 3pm. It was on a pedestal inside a gallery space on 18th Street near Grand Boulevard in Kansas City. The piece is small, about 6 inches tall, with a glossy cobalt glaze, white speckles, and a delicate copper-leaf accent circling the base. It’s signed LC on the bottom by local ceramicist Lena Cho. It holds real sentimental value for me—it was part of a personal show, and I’m really hoping to get it back soon.
Lost wallet with Cynthia's ID inside
Lost wallet - black leather bifold wallet. Cards and ID inside with name Cynthia. Last seen on 4/24/26 in Crossroads near 19th & Central.
Dwarf hamster with white patch, blue cage
I lost my dwarf hamster yesterday around 3pm. He's a small, grey-brown guy with a distinct white patch on his forehead and a tiny black dot on his left paw. He was in a light-blue plastic cage with a yellow exercise wheel, and I think he squeezed out when I was unloading groceries at the City Market, near the Main Street entrance and the KC Streetcar stop at 4th & Main. He's the size of a tennis ball and zooms around whenever he gets excited; his fur is silky and soft. This little guy means the world to me—he's been a comfort through a tough month, and I’d be incredibly grateful to get him back.
Emerald-green budgie with yellow head
I lost my emerald-green budgie with a sunny yellow head yesterday around 3pm. It slipped from its cage while I was waiting for the downtown streetcar near Union Station, outside the entrance on West 18th Street. The bird is about 6 inches long with a bright blue tail and a slightly frayed left-wing feather. It wears a silver leg band with 'KC' etched on it. This little guy is really precious to me—I've had him since last year and he’s a big part of my day. If anyone finds him, please reach out; I’d be forever grateful.
Silver bracelet with green leaf charm
I lost my silver bracelet with a tiny green enamel leaf charm yesterday around 3pm near the Crown Center fountain on Grand Boulevard in Kansas City. It's a slim, 7-inch bracelet with a small scratch on the clasp, and the inside is engraved with the initials 'AK'. The bracelet has sentimental value—it's a gift from my grandmother, and I really miss it. It’s easy to spot when the sun hits it: a soft shine, a faint tarnish on the back, and that distinctive green leaf charm.
Blue keyring with elephant charm and initials AM
I lost my keys yesterday around 3pm near Union Station in Kansas City. It's a small metal keyring with four keys: two Kwikset house keys, a Toyota car key, and a bright blue plastic tag stamped with my initials 'AM'. There's also a tiny silver elephant charm dangling from the ring—the sentimental piece from my grandmother. The ring is in decent condition, but the blue tag shows a few scratches and the elephant charm is a little tarnished. The keys were last seen on the ground outside the Union Station gift shop near Pershing Road. I really need them back, this set means a lot to me and I feel lost without them.
