About this listen

Union Pacific’s gleaming art deco building was state-of-the-art and on the cutting edge of design and fabrication when it opened for passenger service on January 15, 1931. Over 10,000 passengers hustled and bustled their way through Union Station as they traveled across the country.  But just 40 years later, the building was the discarded “white elephant” of the city. Explore the history of the station, how it was saved from the wrecking ball and its designation as a true national treasure.
