rp H E completlou of the new Chicago
Union Station marks a note­
worthy accomplishment in the history
of Important engineering undertakings,
from which travelers from all parts of
the United States will derive pleas­
ure and benefit.
The station ls without doubt one of
the finest and most efficiently designed
railroad terminals In the world. It
forms a vital link In the realization of
the ‘‘Chicago City Beautiful Plan.” Sim­
plicity, accessibility and convenience
for the traveling public are the essen­
tial virtues of the new terminal. Rest
and recreation rooms, ticket offices,
barber shop, dining rooms, stores of
various kinds, and almost every con­
venience known to travelers, are to be
found on the one level, no steps to
climb.
The main station Is a low monumen­
tal type of Iwllding with a row of
massive columns of dnsslc design
along the entire east front. Once In­
side, the traveler finds himself in a
gigantic waiting room more than 100
feet high and brilliantly lighted
through skylights in the great arch
celling. Colonnndes Inclose the room,
the walls of which are patterned after
the architecture of ancient Rome. Bor­
dering this room are the ultra-complete
passenger terminal facilities An Inno­
vation In railway terminal design Is a

charge, to patrons of the Union Sta­
tion lines for conferences and other
meetings.
To give some Idea of the immensity
of the new station. It may be stated
that the main building covers an area
of about three acres with a concourse
covering 00,000 square feet. The en­
tire terminal facilities cover more than
35 acres and will expedite the prompt
and satisfactory handling of GO,000
passengers. 400 tops of baggage and
300 trains daily with room for fntnre
expansion. Fifteen acres of glass
were used In the various coverings
over the train sheds, which extend
more than 1,200 feet beyond the main
structure, A total of 17,000 tons of
structural steel, 375,000 cubic feet of
Indiana limestone and 10,000 cubic
feet of granite were used In the sta­
tion building and concourse. The foun­
dation consists of -140 cylindrical con­
crete piers from four to ten feet in
diameter, reaching to n depth of more
than 60 feet below the level of the
Chicago river.
Those who hare had the privilege
of Inspecting the new station pro­
nounce It a marvel in terminal con­
struction and are urging their friends
to see P on their next visit to Chicago.
The station Is used Jointly by the
