Source

St. Louis Union Station, a National Historic Landmark in the United States, is a former passenger train terminal located in St. Louis, Missouri. This historic site, once the world's largest and busiest train station, has been transformed into a hotel, shopping center, and entertainment complex. Today, it only serves local transportation: Metrolink.

Renovation and Reopening of Union Station

In August 1985, after a $150 million renovation by Hok, Union Station was reopened as a 539-room hotel, a shopping center, several restaurants, and a food court. Federal historic rehabilitation tax credits were used to transform the station into one of the city's most visited attractions. The rehabilitation was carried out by Conrad Schmitt Studios.
