Prairie Village’s ad-hoc civic center committee reconvened for the first time in years last week, restarting a conversation that was largely put on hold because of the COVID-19 pandemic. But there’s a long history behind efforts to remake the four-square-block around City Hall that includes Harmon Park and Shawnee Mission East High School. The area, now being referred to by the city as Prairie Village’s civic center, is bound by Delmar Street and Mission Road on the east and west, and 75th and 79th Streets on the north and south.
