El Graces Train Station

on Route 66 in Needles

"Once one of the grandest Harvey House Hotel, Restaurant and Santa Fe Railroad Stations. The hotel and restaurant were open from 1908 to 1949. The train station closed in 1988." (from sign in front of the station)
Plans are underway to restore the building by 2008.
I took this shot looking through the chainlink fence to show how it appears facing the railroad tracks. It's a huge, beautiful building and I hope Needles is able to raise the $12,000,000 needed to restore it to its former glory.
