Description

Denver Union Station is the main railway station and central transportation hub in Denver, Colorado. It is located at 17th and Wynkoop Streets in the present-day LoDo district and includes the historic terminal building, a train shed canopy, a 22-gate underground bus facility, and light rail station. The building first opened on June 1, 1881 with its present-day structure completed in 1914. In 2012, it underwent a major renovation in order to redevelop it as the centerpiece of a new transit-oriented mixed use development on the site's former rail-yards. The building re-opened in the summer of 2014 with the addition of the Crawford Hotel, several restaurants and retailers, and a train hall. A wonderful architectural blend of history and modern 21st Century. This hub of historical down town Denver's warehouse and red light district of the late 1800s and present days fast paced, restaurant, arts, theatre and music venues reaches out to all parts of the city and the entire Rocky Mountain front, including Denver International Airport. There is something for everyone!!!
