Los Angeles - Union Station
|
|
Union Station in Los Angeles, built in the Spanish mission-house style between 1934-39 (800 North Alameda Street), proved to be one of the last large city railway stations of its kind in the United States. It was a communal project by three private railway companies, Southern Pacific, Santa Fe and Union Pacific. Particularly worth noting are the waiting-room, over 50ft/15m high and with a ceiling of wooden beams, the marble floors and the numerous arcades.
