Omaha Union Station

Omaha Union Station, designed by Gilbert Stanley Underwood for the Union Pacific Railroad, is an exceptional and highly complete example of Art Deco architecture and one of a very few Art Deco designs that references ancient Egyptian temple construction. Built between 1929 and 1930, the station united the mutual values of the railroad industry and the Art Deco style: modernity, progress, and glamour. It served as a showpiece for the Union Pacific's headquarters in Omaha, near the eastern terminus of the Transcontinental Railroad, and has been designated a National Historic Landmark.
