1694 17th Street, Denver 80202
Denver's Union Station consists of a Neo-Classical central section, constructed in 1914, with flanking wings from a previous 1881 depot. The station represents the consolidation of passenger and baggage facilites for most railroads serving Denver. The consolidated depot facilitated the transfer of passengers and freight between competing railroads and furthered the city's growth as a major railtransportation hub. The building continues to serve as Denver's intercity rail passenger depot.
