Kingdom City, Missouri Kingdom City, Missouri Location of Kingdom City, Missouri Location of Kingdom City, Missouri Kingdom City is a village in Callaway County, Missouri, United States.

Kingdom City has its origins in the building of US Route 40 in 1925, at the same time US Route 54 was being prepared with the intention of intersecting US 40 somewhere along the route.

The town/city of Fulton had hoped for US 40 to go from Columbia through Fulton and intersect US 54 in their city, but the final decision had the highways intersect in what would turn into Kingdom City, which was then just a non-urban farm and forested region south of Mc - Credie.

When the road was being assembled and huge numbers of workers were brought in to do the work, Mc - Credie became a boom town, with future Kingdom City receiving its first gas station and a two-story hotel, which (however) burned down in 1930. Since the region had no name at the time the intersection was referred to only as the "Y", with citizens in Fulton wanting to name it "North Fulton" and the citizens in Mc - Credie naming it "South Mc - Credie".

(Bernard Parker) Beamer, suggested Kingdom City, in reflection of the nickname for Callaway County.
