After some research, I was able to locate a great spot to continue the love lock tradition – the Old Red Bridge in Minor Park. It is reported, there are over 3,500 love locks on the Old Red Bridge since allowing lock placement in February of 2013. While dining at Café Verona, you may enjoy viewing the many unique love locks that are standing the test of time - many have names and dates inscribed on them. Maybe you’ve heard the old saying “if these walls could talk”, well I’d like to hear the story attached to each love lock as they most certainly would be sweeping tales of romance and what better way to end a beautiful evening. Café Verona is located at 206 West Lexington Avenue in Independence, MO. 816.833.0044 (www.cafeveronarestaurant.com). Old Red Bridge: www.kcparks.org/places/ old-red-bridge-love-locks. ^
Many couples have visited Café Verona judging by the number of love locks in place at Café Verona.
