Union Station, Washington, DC

Union Station opened in 1907.
It was designed by Daniel Burnham who also designed the Flatiron Building in NYC.
It has an annual ridership of around 5 million people.
It was pretty quiet the day we were there!
I snapped this shot as we rushed to get our train.
Someday I want to go back and use my wide angle lens to take photos here.
A beautiful building.

A perfect composition of this grand and beautiful station. I remember being there but would have only taken it in, with crowds of people as we passed through thinking about our coming journey. Thank you for a stop, stare and appreciate chance. V

They sure don't make them like this anymore. Buffalo has a few. Great POV.

A beautiful building indeed and nicely shown at 18mm. Only a few people about to spice up the scene. I'd imagine it gets pretty crowded there which would make for an entirely different impact, of course.

A wonderful composition of this beautiful interior. "V"
Brings back memories. For years I took the Metroliner from here to NY & NJ on business at least once or twice a month. It was actually faster than flying.

Amazing place love the natural light and the architecture.
Nice sharp shot and you covered plenty of territory with
the lens you shot with.
Excellent sharpness and a complete composition.

Great shot of the station's West Hall. I haven't been there for like a few years, even though it's only 10 blocks from our house. V.

That's one great shot for a "snap". "VVV". Interesting about the Flatiron building.
