Union Station - Beaux-Arts transportation hub and public art venue

Union Station is a landmark Beaux-Arts train station designed by Daniel Burnham and opened in the early 20th century; its Great Hall is an ornate public concourse used for events and large-scale installations. The station combines transportation functions with retail, dining, and exhibition space and has been the site of temporary public-art projects and cultural programming. Its architecture and public programming make it a longstanding civic and creative landmark in the city.
