Traveling through the capital city - Washington DC there are numerous buildings that are of architectural interest. Many of them were built to be great buildings to last the test of time, testimonials of their purpose. The capital building, Washington Monument, Jefferson Memorial etc. Many of the private sector buildings like the Willard Hotel in Washington DC, the Chrysler Building in New York City, buildings throughout our country that spoke of the greatness of the times. Many of the cities in our country had a Union Station. The place where all of the trains met, the places that were the center of transportation and commerce in our great country. Testaments to the steel bands that connected our country from East to West, and North to South.
Union Station - Washington DC The buildings represented the times. glamorous lifestyles and bigger than life individuals like the Rockefeller's, Barney Oldfield, Vanderbilt's. The artwork and the detail in the buildings makes the construction work of today make one wonder what will be said of our buildings and our society in a hundred years. While walking through the expansive corridors you wonder how many presidents and movie stars walked on the same marble looking at the same view that you see right now.
