Union Station | Living St. Louis

Thankfully the people of St. Louis had the foresight to preserve much of this wonderful station complex for future generations to admire and enjoy.

I visited this great station in the mid-1950s to mid-1960s. I was a busy place then. Wonderful meals at the Fred Harvey restaurant. What a tragedy it is to see it today.

I'd love to have tagged along with you then.

Modern American culture is about the suburbs and more space. In my experience, awesome train stations are now found outside of America

Watching this on the bus as literally we pull up into Civi Center (station they showed being constructed at the beginning of this video) while I can see Union Station in the background. Lol

Great Story !!

Who would have ever thought that a train station would have to make way for a highway.

[@camcordernonsense5264]

The forcing of change.

[@erikmcc804]
