Opened in May 1939, Union Station is known as the 'Last of the Great Railway Stations' built in the United States. Designed by by the father and son team of John Parkinson and Donald B. Parkinson, with the assitance of Architect Jan van der Linden and others.

The architecture blends Spanish Mission and Art Deco styles in a harmonious mix of original light fixtures, inlaid stone floors, painted ceilings and tiled walls. The station has been featured in many films, including Blade Runner, Silver Streak and The Italian Job.

Located at 800 N. Alameda Street east of downtown Los Angeles.
